I fell into Santa Muerte’s eyes
Cadillac lips that shine but don’t smile
She said
Listen Love, I don’t ever cry
I can sleep at night
No regrets keep my eyes wide
You just looked lonely tonight
It was a well rehearsed line
Told one hundred times
Put her hand on mine
And the world just turned under our feet
Lord, I’ve never felt so old
You were lighting
Lighting and Flare
In a photograph
You wore LA shades
Under shelter hiding from the Northern rain
On the barest wall you hung there, unafraid
Oh those glory days
See how you’ve changed
As you clean the paint from your tired eyes
Love, in each line’s a tale
You were lightning
Lightning and Flare
