There once was a girl
so in love
There once was a girl
who fell down from the sky up above
with the whip of her skirt
and her hair down down down down down down to the earth
she had some things to learn
Suit up, it’s your time in the sun
Grow up, and know your place for once
Eyes front, the show has just begun
This life’s a masquerade
We’ve all got our parts to play
And there the girl stood
Shirt starched white, bound tighter than it should
Free bird just doing her time
Out of love, out of light
Body double rotting in the sunshine
Father forgive her wandering eye,
That girl was meant to burn
Suit up, it’s your time in the sun (wish she could let her hair down down down down)
Grow up, and know your place for once (wish she could let her guard down down down down)
Eyes front, the show has just begun
This life’s a masquerade
We’ve all got our parts to play
And it’s the fall
The fall
The fall
The writing’s on the wall
Suit up, it’s your time in the sun (wish she could let her hair down down down down)
Grow up, and know your place for once (wish she could let her guard down down down down)
Eyes front, the show has just begun
This life’s a masquerade
We’ve all got our parts to play

Lyrics:
Im sure to some
I just seem obscene
My heart hits
To a different beat
Call me and I’ll come up
Beckon me with softness in your voice
And I will fill your cup
Call me and I’ll come out
Streetlights flickerin’
And daddy’s on my mind
Oh we’ve got time
If I’m the One,
The phantom in your dreams
There’s just one
Little thing I need
You can kiss your reputation goodbye
And get on your knees
Call me and I’ll come up
Beckon me with softness in your voice
And I will fill your cup
Call me and I’ll come out
Streetlights flickerin’
And daddy’s on my mind
Oh we’ve got time
I know you’re spellbound, honey
And your heart belongs to me
Who knew that love could be so ugly
So why don’t you…
Call me and I’ll come up
Beckon me with softness in your voice
And I will fill your cup
Call me and I’ll come out
Streetlights flickerin’
And daddy’s on my mind
Oh we’ve got time
Call me and I’ll come up
Beckon me with softness in your voice
And I will fill your cup
Call me and I’ll come out
Streetlights flickerin’
And daddy’s on my mind
Oh we’ve got time

My First Temptation
Another soft creation
I’ve never felt this heat within my chest
My worst temptation
A heavenly sensation
I’ve never seen an angel in the flesh
I’ve never felt like this before
Is this my spring awakening
How can someone be so beautiful
Am I just making a big mistake
My First Temptation
Another soft creation
I’ve never felt this heat within my chest
My worst temptation
A heavenly sensation
I’ve never seen an angel in the flesh
Do you believe in love
Do you believe in heaven
Do you believe in love
Do you believe in heaven
My First Temptation
Another soft creation
I’ve never felt this heat within my chest
My worst temptation
A heavenly sensation
I’ve never seen an angel in the flesh

Not Like The Others
03:16

Brick and mortar
Cobblestones in order
The path forward is always clear as day
Meek and quiet
Never cause a riot
And if I tried I’d be hushed away
Sleep, deny it
A life in ultraviolet
And if I fall tonight,
I lived to entertain
I’m not like the others
And if they’d read between the poetry,
They’d surely be destroyed
No, I’m not like the others
I cross my heart and bleed through cherry lips
I’ll never go astray
Cry, my darling
Love is so disarming
But if I close my eyes I’ll drift away
Charmed too silent
I keep my demons private
And yes, I hope to die to hear my lover say
That I’m not like the others
And if they’d read between the poetry,
They’d surely be destroyed
No, I’m not like the others
I cross my heart and bleed through cherry lips
I’ll never go astray
I’m not like the others
Brick and mortar
Cobblestones in order
The path forward is always clear as day

Last Call

I must confess
I’ve been a simmering mess
Your lost disciple’s got a criminal mind
And I’ve been trying my best
To hold it all inside
This is my last call (last call to daddy)
I hate to break the news (she hates to break the news)
Oh, this is my last call
I’ve got much better things to do
I don’t need an answer (she doesn’t need an answer)
Oh lord, would you rather
Would you rather me blind?
As it seems such a waste of your gift of sight
Oh lord, father in heaven
I don’t know if I can wait much longer
This is my last call (last call to daddy)
I hate to break the news (she hates to break the news)
Oh, this is my last call
I’ve got much better things to do
I don’t need an answer (she doesn’t need an answer)
I’ve been down here on my knees
For my whole damn life
I’ve been begging pretty please
Just let me
I don’t know if I can take all the faith and lies (all the faith and lies, all the faith and lies, all the faith and lies, all the faith and lies)
I’m telling
This is my last call (last call to daddy)
I hate to break the news (she hates to break the news)
Oh, this is my last call
I’ve got much better things to do
I don’t need an answer (she doesn’t need an answer)

Queera Nightly Oakland, California
Reflections of a dark belladonna, The Girl Who Fell spins a tale of secrets and
desire.
How the wounded young woman will run forever, losing time and losing sleep, tangled up in vintage telephone lines.
I met her once, a shadow in the bar.
I doubt she remembers me at all.
I asked her her name, her story. She laughed.
“How much time do you have?”
