halls of sarah

a childless widow of a nation, you cry like guns across the water, yet we expect you to bring springtime, it isn't fair, searchlights wither in your hair, you are a silent movie, sarah, men build their industries around you, gathered in withers of your hair, they're looking farther on reflection, you're left to die of exposure, sarah, sarah with the beating heart, sarah with the mouth of stone, sarah with the. you are a silent movie, sarah, let her go, the light is fading, i cry like guns across the water, she didn't ask to be your remake or your muse, the parasites inside of booze, sarah with the beaten heart, sarah with the mouth of stone, i call but there is no one home, sarah with the beaten heart, sarah with the mouth of stone, i call but there is only echo, from a recording machine, screaming my dreams, you see our poets, do an odious business, loving womankind, as lions love christians, so who are you to deny, who are you to deny them, sarah?,
