Gunpowder Lullaby Devil on my street tonight Whistling his favorite tune Long fingers grip the trigger tight Feel his damned touch, quelling doubt Ruby lips and glassy eyes glimpsed Through shadow-kissed window panes Insubstantial, hopeful lies Dream until my truth begins Siren song, Paint the blue man red Still his stirring, trembling lips Seep final words through sidewalk cracks Powder black and asphalt red Breathe out your final verse (Sing until I can smile again)
