7 Mile Lane

For 7 years she could not make her bed
O lawd I cried; Is this my best defense?
It was 12 steps that led us to the death
I will not be my own significance
When your culture leaves you no no place to mourn
You begin to take revenge on the unknown

7 miles until you begin to fear you
7 miles 'til another soul hears you
There's no no mourning here
Yes, there's no mourning here
There's no no mourning hear
And we'll have no morning here

Driving driving driving 3 am
Only to be at the place where we began
A 7 mile lane lay me at my wit's end
to lie here watch everything play at pretend
7 miles to grow old in
7 miles to watch your soaps in
7 miles to dig your grave in
7 miles to rise again from

We came to embrace the havoc
We came to play in traffic
Hold our heads up to artificial light
and say our prayers when
we can tell that it's night
We came to speak in tongues
but we only know teeth & gums
There's no no mourning here
Yes there's no mourning here
There's no no mourning hear
And we'll have no morning here

Stucco and skyscrapers
Tombstones and mile markers
A home is a 7 mile lane
Our home is a 7 mile lane

Did you hear about the flooding
Did you download blueprints to the ark
You better go and get your mother
She may need that bed made before dark
She could use that bed made before dark

Oh the future is unfolding
It is blue screen to be filled in
It's a skeleton of a riverbed
We put in another 7 mile lane
Yes we put in another 7 mile lane

about

Bonfire Madigan San Diego, California

Bonfire Madigan, AKA Madigan Shive, is one of my favorite musicians of all time. She clutches her cello like a life-raft, singing in gorgeous yelps and hums. It doesn’t really matter if you like the kind of music Bonfire Madigan sings, because she does it so soulfully and gracefully, you can’t help but stand there open mouthed, gawking at her vocals and cello.— JS The Mercury Pdx, OR ... more
