lyrics

CAFE LOVELY
(e. fischer)

at the café lovely
the busy abattoir
in the lacerating clarity
you finally become what you’ve become
with mad songs and secret books
in the sanctuary of damaged goods
crazy motherfucker humming the tune
of everlasting love and everlasting ruin
thick skin, thin skin
under the light
skin deep, skin tight
skin be bright

and you say, isn’t that wonderful
then you say, isn’t that divine
to always be waiting for a ride on the train
bags packed by your side
and if the dizzy razzle of events
becomes too much to bear
you run, you’re done, by design or fate
you never guaranteed, that you would linger in this place

you’re not without experience
ghosts of things you’ve done
grimly murmured anecdotes
always good for a laugh
and if dread seeps into the scenery
in a way you can’t quite define
give it a name, make it your friend
and ride it off into the night
