Bruises Lyrics by Postcards (LB)

After The Fire, Before The End

2021

I always thought that this would end
With scaffolds crushing me to death
Cautionary tales for city boys and girls

Images engraved inside my head
A dying Mozart on the stairs
In an unmarked grave
A bedtime story’s end

“Hush” you whisper “don’t you cry”
You worry that the neighbors might hear me
What can they have to say anyway?

I am on the other side when everything’s in motion
I’m in all the photographs and nowhere in the caption

Poetry and rigidity
The curses you passed on to me
I find myself awake at night
Waiting for the day

Please don’t ask me
The customary questions
I don’t know
What can I have to say anyway?
