Pretty girl from Atlanta
By silent_screams
Girl, what can I say to you?
Something you’ve never heard
before?
Goosebumps galore
Ouch! My sore! It hasn’t healed
yet,
Not completely, but through my blinding
Eyes I can see
for miles …
Entirely too many miles.
Smile sun, and moon,
oh great one,
Smile.
I have nothing to hold on to
It’s
what makes this ride so great
Never knowing your fate,
Always
running a few minutes late.
So much happening it makes my head
spin
Well I made my way down to Georgia,
With deep regret and
self loathing,
Found my way into the Paris of the
South’s way
to sin, over and over,
Again and again,
The blistering
August concrete days in the city,
They make me feel so little bitty,
Just here to watch and report,
Bridges are funnier to burn
As
you fall apart, waiting at the station,
For yet another vacation
A suitcase and a trunk,
You can’t ever change a gambler’s luck
Going down to New Orleans,
Gonna change this gamblers luck
In
a house they call the rising sun.
Not what I expected, all summed
up
Within fractions and other digits
I don’t understand,
Man man man,
I’ve never understood these things.
And
I love this moment I’m in,
I have friends across the world,
Shit
and funk,
The winter grows on,
As my hair falls outs,
Am I really that old?
“You are the words in a song that
Hoon sang to me,”
And does it even matter?
Soul already
sold to ‘em
And now I ask myself why.
The monster lied
to me,
So here I am all fucked up
And all alone, pretty girl
from
Atlanta,
You scare the shit out of me,
So perfect and
all the nonsense,
All the beautiful nonsense
Girl where
have you gone?
What has taken so long?
So you’re married
now,
Two angels as children,
And a man that cares.
Good
– for – you –
Expected to show up and eat and
Sleep (no
one notices that you’re shit smells
Too)
I understand
angel, that’s what I do.
I just hope my virtual presence
Couldn’t
possible be the end of you.
