lyrics

IV. For Life Long
(Scars)

"I don't wanna talk about it now."
"We have got to talk about it -talk about it, anyhow."
"And I can't tell you here - you hear?"
"But we have to tell someone - that is clear." it's clear. Hear.
Only tears behind her eyes. She wears full bodied armor. A full time disguise.
If she doesn't let this out - well you'll never be in.
She may have been penetrated. But that was only skin.
TRYING - TRYING SO HARD - FOR LIFE
FOR LIFE LONG
TRYING TRYING SO HARD
FOR LIFE LONG SCARS
"I can't tell you here - you hear?"
"You had to tell someone yeah that was clear."
"I don't even know where you think we're going from here!"
Baby with your full time armor, where's your full time gear?
you here? hear. IN HER. BLOOD. IN HER. IT'S IN HER. SINNER. TUB TUB.
IN HER. BLOOD. IT'S IN HER.
TRYING - TRYING SO HARD - FOR LIFE
FOR LIFE LONG
TRYING TRYING SO HARD
FOR LIFE LONG SCARS
"What did you say?"
"What did you wanna hear?"
Did you say what you wanted to hear? Did she say. Did you wanna hear. Did you
already hear what you wanted to hear? Did you already hear what you came to hear.
will you hear her say --- DON'T. YOU GO. AWAY FROM ME. WATCH. ME
HIT. THE FLOOR. YOU KNOW I LOVE IT WHEN MY BLOOD POURS.
DON'T. YOU GO. AWAY FROM ME. WATCH ME HIT THE FLOOR CUZ
YOU KNOW I LOVED IT -BABY- WHEN YOUR BLOOD POURED. WHEN
OUR BLOOD POURS.
did you already hear all you wanna hear? Did you hear her say what you came to hear?
Do we only ever hear what we wanna hear? will we hear her say yes. no. yeah. i like it
like that. you like it like that. yea. yeah, no. no. oh no. yeah ...

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
