The Carnival Is Dead And Gone Lyrics

Dear sir dear lady

This carnival is dead and gone

And never anyway alas this party never yet began

The chairs and tables dust of dust

Yes verydust of veryrust of verymust and farewelltrust

I thought I saw you in the crowd dear heart

You turned away from me and dissolved into light

The broken lights and faded buntings

Call to us all the inmost light

And don't glare wide your eyes in wonder

They will flick back inside your mind

And on the bonescreen of your skull

They watch no musical salutes

So thoroughly modern now we are

But the last reel of all time

The inmost night

It's frames are glared and slow and out of focus

Valentino Vallee Moss all dead!

The inmost night

And the little bells go tinkle

And your eyes begin to twinkle

And the joints and sinews crack

It's the expansion of your mind death

Death

Death

Death

The cat's face glares from shiny card

The deadcat from my past

You tumble you froth and fun forever

An orchestra from another time

Another world all dead

The churchbells silent the rainstained glass of God is smashed

And you take your choice you sup with the devil

You choke on your pride for ever and ever

My memory of my inmost light tumbles froth and fun forever

Vulvaic memories imagined of my would-be-life

Well that won't be

And that won't be

And that won't be

And for my troubles and my pain

And for the losses and the wains

I get a picture in my mind

The slyly smily smiling kiss

Of your sweet heart and face

And your legs in some final benediction

Your inmost warmheart says ta-ra

The inmost light

And I wished to die inside of you

And push up into your heart so violently that

Face to face with matrix creatrix am

The inmost light

The inmost night
