Mrs Calloway’s Reviews > The Flame > Status Update

I could not hear the judgement and I fell in love with everyone who fell in love with me

There is a voice powerful
so easily unheard
those that here may hate it all
but follow every word

I could not kill
the way you kill
I could not hate
I tried I failed.

I cried for you this morning
and I’ll cry for you again
but I’m not in charge of sorrow
so please don’t ask me when

Baby don’t ignore me
We were smokers we were friends
forget that tired story
Of betrayal and revenge

You want to live where the suffering is
I want to get out of town
Cmon on baby give me a kiss
stop writing everything down.

Both of us say there are laws to obey
but frankly I don’t like your tone
you want to change the way I make love
I want to leave it alone.

The pull of the moon the thrust of the sun
and thus the ocean is crossed
the water are blessed while a shadowy guest
Kindles a light for the lost

I’m naked and I’m filthy
and there’s sweat upon my brow
and both of us are guilty
anyhow

I got no future
I know my days a few
the present’s not that pleasant
just a lot of things to do
I thought the past would last me
But the darkness got that too.
