Treat me so. Twas long ago And yet it stays and burns me up to think of how you left me Flat on the ground with a knife on my chest On a plane homeward bound You speak to me like youre in a dream Just a Silouette. At least so it seems With the scent of your breath like gold cigarettes You were gone lost down decadent alleyways Cecilia why? Treat me so. Eight years ago. And cleary I see it now, how lucky that you left me Like a junkie strung out on political clout In an old opera house. So let him be or just let him dream Like a doctor on methamphetamines. Let him skip through the sky like hes Lucy and I Hell be gone. He’ll be gone, He’ll be gone But Cecilia why? treat him so? The seeds you sew Will spell his end and he’ll descend alone With barely a blink. And with no time to think Of those corrender nights. He surrendered in spite of you. myspace.com/theshadeplantbandits
