Hollow Jubilee |
How my fingers found you so quickly in the dark |
Hardly strictly business, speaking from the heart |
On the bathroom sink, I lifted up your skirt |
How was I to know just how badly I’d get hurt? |
Everyone was talking backwards, drowning on their feet |
I noticed how the rose was clenched too tightly in your teeth |
We were spoiling for a fight, the special way we’d flirt |
I dragged you to the garden, we did it in the dirt |
You pretend to be you, I’ll pretend to be me |
And I’ll see you at the hollow jubilee |
In a post-orgasmic haze, sometimes some truth escapes |
When the pressure is relieved, one can relive the better days |
When we were as one, you thought I was too young |
Now sometimes you feel something else when the chill of evening comes |
You pretend to be you, I’ll pretend to be me |
Hiding at the hollow jubilee |
Our loves lies in repose and everybody knows |
You weave the fabric of your life into your onstage clothes |
I always pictured you and me growing old disgracefully |
Now I see the club’s sold out and there’s no room for me |
There’s a blindfold for you and a mirror for me |
Hanging at the hollow jubilee |
So, you pretend to be you, I’ll pretend to be me |
When I see you at the hollow jubilee |
