Lovesong to Everyone - Sophie Hunger

I took your door bell and rang up the city

I rolled your fags.

And it made me feel pretty

One gun held against my shoe

And the other one pointing at you

You were all so very lovely

My hands were in the air

Fell in love right in the beginning

I swear, I swear, I swear

Good god.

As if they were empty

I filled up my pockets, until I had plenty

Plenty of things belonging to you

Your schools, your fools, your blues

You were all so very lovely

My hands were in the air

Fell in love right in the beginning

I swear, I swear, I swear

I collected the ghosts that would sleep in your hair and I stole all the words

they hung into the air

And with them I shaped a pen and a chair, in which I sit, sing and scribble

I composed a dog barking in vain, and with it the silence behind its complaints

And with that the highways that take things away, and then discovered that

there are no endings

And now that I am so completely of you, I do not understand what I do

Dear all, I am full of your blood

Full of your absence

Full of your love

Full of your words

That will tear me apart

Apart from everything

In mid-air blinding the shades

The sun appears and I get carried away

That was it my truthful account of what it’s about
