Cascades

(album: Thistled Spring - 2010)

Bailey's her name and there's a price she takes
Blurring lines while she ruthlessly raised the stakes
And there's a mess that she made
We kiss on the mouth with hearts that were bound and gagged
The news was broke the witness was the Cascades

Do you remember me?
'Cause there's a piece of my mind in a field of dandelions
Do you remember me? 'Cause there's a tale I tell
It's made of rain and hell
We will seldom speak and we will rarely talk

Bailey, your secret's known
She weeps in the brush alone
Loss wed to despair, in love when her womb was bare
We kiss on the mouth with hearts that were bound and gagged
The news was broke the witness was the Cascades

A kiss, a touch, our bodies became arsonists to will and brains
To him the cold hearted thing was she came demanding rings
The day was mute and hot. We will rarely talk
I'm just where you left me alone by them lilacs
