Passive antibody, romantic rebel, too much too soon.Sly glances are exchanged behind a veil
As surreptitious fingers find their place
Black crows perform a ballet in the sky
And scorpions put on their public face.Talking is suspended for the day
As imbeciles lay out the wedding feast
Communication breakdown, the couples blankly stare
Investigate the odour of the beast.An onanistic orgy is decreed
Binoculars and notebooks may be used
Slow dancers hold their partners in a tight, unnatural way
The order of the lonely and confused.An empty sky festooned with precious things
With baubles, bangles, memories and fears
They raise a glass to abstinence, to continence and loss
And toast the coming Calvinistic years.Those empty vows, those shallow words of love
Those dedications echo in this hall
Those promises they made, those pledges duly signed
Harsh witness to this final curtain call.Myspace Backgrounds
