about

from the 2011 Horse Verse album, "Trifle"

lyrics

hum of a telegraph telephone ring in singing wires fleeting moments words of the dying on wax track in lampblack scientific sacrifice saphire and celluloid a hopeless gesture claws scratch at cables a useless object no fountain of youth bound by iron chains fate sealed in a graveyard fairground a prison with splendid French expert ornate mechanism beg to release her fly to the moon to fly to the stars a dream of an airship dusted with gold to the hill to the death chamber gallows with trumpet smoke and thunder the crowd of spectators cheap whisky bystanders a curious boy for a fraction of a second entombed like his father sister brother his mother transfixed in time frozen trapped in amber a smoldering ember lotions an potions from Baghdad to Giza attempt to revive her Galvani kissed her sunset to sunrise put on her necklace adjusted his timepiece he was her lifeblood he was inside her opposites attract rain rain cats and dogs to the earth to the ground raining my tears to a puddle on the floor never forgert the note perfect conductor God permits Satan
