Some whisper crawled and brought the news -
Could never asked for sooner
Out of nowhere it set loose
The devil of a woman

Out of nowhere - what a laugh! -
Is that some kind of land?
If that's a land, on whose behalf
To me she would've been sent?

The long lost wraith once seen before
She ripped at tiniest pace
I had a courtesy of falling for
The Devil's pretty face

The joy and woe as heads and tails
Flipped right at my lot's palm
As giant as a flock of whales
As loud as blowed up bombs

And cutting through the storm and breeze
That broke old times apart
Tell! Whom can I now give at ease
The specter of my heart?

What's done is done and left to bind
The story's wrapped in stone
And nonetheless if you don't mind
I'd better change the tone:

***

La life la love and all things red
Straight up your face to pull last thread
It's a roulette of yes and no
It is a child who failed to grow
But just in case you wish to know
How I revive from whole heart burn -
It doesn't take too much to get:
I never lose
I always learn
