lyrics

"Have your cake and eat it too"
You said to me, so endearingly
With a slap to my face and the sound of your heel you were gone
Down the fair porcelain corridor
Cecilia, why treat me so?
Twas long ago, and yet it still burns me up
To think of how you left me
Flat on the ground with a knife in my chest, on a plane homeward bound

You speak to me like you're in a dream
Just a silhouette, at least so it seems
With the scent of your breath like gold cigarettes
You were gone, lost down decadent alleyways
Cecilia, why treat me so?
Eight years ago. And clearly I see it now
How lucky that you left me like a junkie strung out on political clout in an old opera house

So let him be or just let him dream
Like a doctor on methamphetamines
Let him skip through the sky
Like Lucy and I
He'll be gone, he'll be gone, he'll be gone
But Cecelia, why treat him so?
Those seeds you've sewn will spell his end, and he'll descend alone
With barely a blink and no time to think of those coriander nights he surrendered in spite of you

The Michael Character Boston, Massachusetts

It's political music, whatever. Based in Boston, MA. Absolutely willing to drive very far to play for you and five of your vaguely alternative friends in your combination kitchen/laundry room. Hit me up. I'm fully serious.
