lyrics

i started with the costume
and i worked from there
i don't know

the tunnels and the tendrils
buffet you along
and you just go

a course of cancelation
easy certainties
and undertow

here lies Rachel Wallace
b.66 d.99
overfed and undernourished
she supported herself fine

an apian way of cash machines
scattering rose petals at your feet
and singing sotto voce
"don't forsake me bitch
I got your number
I brought you in
I'll take you out

it's not dignified
to speculate about the inner lives
of celebrities
I do it anyway
a drooling hagiographer
in a proud nation of drooling hagiographers

fill that hole with prurience
united in loneliness
the line is stretching up the street
and just like you
they learned to
dress their wounds in perfume

here lies Rachel wallace
b.66 d.99
too soon old too late whole
she supported herself fine
