The Carnival Is Dead And Gone
Lyricist:Donald J. Stevenson, Jerry A. Miller
Dear sir, dear lady This carnival is dead and gone And never anyway Alas this party never yet began
The chairs and tables, dust of dust Yes, very dust of, very rust of Very must and farewell trust
I thought I saw you in the crowd, dear heart You turned away from me and dissolved into light The broken lights and faded buntings Call to us all the inmost light
And don't glare wide your eyes in wonder They will flick back inside your mind And on the bonescreen of your skull They watch no musical salutes
So thoroughly modern now we are But the last reel of all time The inmost night Its frames are glared and slow and out of focus
Valentino, Vallee Moss, all dead The inmost night And the little bells go tinkle And your eyes begin to twinkle
And the joints and sinews crack It's the expansion of your mind death Death, death, death The inmost night
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com The cat's face glares from shiny card The dead cat from my past You tumble you froth and fun forever An orchestra from another time Another world all dead
The church bells silent the rain Stained glass of God is smashed And you take your choice You sup with the devil
You choke on your pride for ever and ever My memory of my inmost light Tumbles froth and fun forever Vulvaic memories imagined of my would be life
Well, that won't be And that won't be and that won't be And for my troubles and my pain And for the losses and the wains
I get a picture in my mind The slyly smiley, smiling kiss Of your sweet heart and face And your legs in some final benediction
Your inmost warmheart says tax ra The inmost light And I wished to die inside of you And push up into your heart so violently that Face to face with matrix creatrix am
The inmost light The inmost night
