Self Titled #2 - Agamous Betty feat. Drew Woolley (piano).

Model Freight Train.

A decade of trauma, contorting a smile
That fought like a soldier then died like a child. 
I mocked her response, but what could she say,
When the blind girl had asked her the colour of rain?
When the brothel I'd wished for showed up in my dreams
I was too quick to blame her, and her Model Freight Train,
But, I digress ...

She taught me the Concern. And my purchasable faith, 
Down on linoleum knees, just to float my tongues wastes 
Whilst somewhere in between three to nineteen
Continually mistrusted phalanges,
lacerate the linen - all disarranged,
But concealing so well, a synonym for sin,
Whilst I undress. 

Just as gravity fails when it comes to her mind,
Her mind will fail when it gravitates the blind.
I bet a broken down Rolex and a Marlboro gold, 
That the extinction of gambling will always be told
As a nursery rhyme. In worlds outside 
Of nutrition, we dish up leftovers for children.

And the poets you live for never died for you.
Yet the antiques and torment are polished anew 
And these poets we'd die for never lived for us.
I'm been as patient as ancient beliefs - it's a farce.
But all said and done - we're stuck on ground zero 
Knowing these ink men are a wise-crack fools heroes,
Who try and digress.

See her walk down the sun ray with a carcass of guilt
That bred delusional infants, knitting mirrors from her ilk.
Now she tackles the summit. One slip at a time.
Stockbroking her histories - but trafficking mine.
She must have eloped there. No ones heard a thing.
Who thought that remorse could acquire a ring.

And now a blemish of solitude. Attendance is poor. 
But from the quietude, I swear that I've been here before.
And now my own vow of silence; I promise, not a peep -
When they knock me awake or rock me to sleep.



Model Freight Train

Long afloat on shipless oceans
I did all my best to smile
'Til your singing eyes and fingers
Drew me loving to your isle
And you sang
"Sail to me
Sail to me
Let me enfold you
Here I am
Here I am
Waiting to hold you"
Did I dream you dreamed about me?
Were you hare when I was fox?
Now my foolish boat is leaning
Broken lovelorn on your rocks
For you sing
"Touch me not
Touch me not
Come back tomorrow
O my heart
O my heart
Shies from the sorrow"
I'm as puzzled as the newborn child
I'm as riddled as the tide
Should I stand amid the breakers
Or should I lie with Death, my bride?
Hear me sing
"Swim to me
Swim to me
Let me enfold you
Here I am
Here I am
Waiting to hold you"
