[bodytext] => Under soil, roots and dampness Smiles, laughter, sadness Only so many last calls in one's life He seemed to think it was forever. The jukebox swallows quarters Fed from hands once warm Now long since cold Top hats, pocket watches and pin-striped coats Dirt, weeds and seeds beneath loitering cigarette smoke. Devoured by forces remaining unknown Don't swallow my soul unless you swallow my bones Everything I know Eat my rain, my veins and the bane of my existence Pictures burn The world turns It turns and it turns.
