(I'd Appreciate It) In jail, you're trembling. In jail, you're gonna need a drink. Come find me, please, if we're both behind bars. I'd like to see your smile. In this inferno, you can't outrun justice, you can't outrun beauty. Disclose yourself to me, please. It's strength and intellect that will make me prostrate before grace; supine beneath your breath. Dante, come on down, sit beside me and talk in the candlelight with me until dawn breaks. I'll sharpen my lips on your soul. I'll wait for beauty in your words. My tongue lashes about inside my mouth, waiting for you. |
