Beatrice I 01:51
i thought certainly it must be that Beatrice will die then I, i had to close my eyes and in the waning wind that came and went i thought i heard it said "thou too art dead in time so hold your tongue all cold and come see our lady where she lies" when i opened my eyes i cried "oh Beatice oh please will you believe in this"

i've fanned the last of your flames you've heard the last of my days i've got no more pages for you on why we were made but you call me so casually even after you come over on christmas day drunk on champagne i ain't ever seen you walking just standing in random spots we've always battled with glances now you come close to dance but the distance is different and i can't hold your hand we've both got our maps ones in ink and ones in chalk you got this way and i'll go that i bet you'll be the first to get lost but i don't ever see you walking just standing in random spots

Beatrice III 01:52
through heaven, hell and Medea and all my Rainer Maria in solitude and in jealousy i wish water would run down to me we could begin to be human beings (i said what i said to you - you said what you said to me) and say "see, we are one in the same" (but not what i wanted to - i couldn't hear anything) and loss is nothing but change into our slave family of authors with an overseas officer marches Lady Liberty who'd die just to save me a union of the two of you will only be (i said what i said to you - you said what you said to me) a dried seed dropped in some mud (but not what i needed to - that you'd be there for me) and in what grows up the difference is none oh i can give you nothing at all all my gold turns to coal in your hands and i become poor in the end

true love will find you in the end you'll find out who was your friend don't be sad, i know you will but don't give up until true love will find you in the end this is a promise with a catch only if you're looking can it find you because true love is searching and how can it recognize you unless you step out into the light don't be sad, i know you will but don't give up until true love will find you in the end don't be said, i know you will but don't give up until true love will find you in the end

Beatrice IV 01:28
i'm no night owl but with the lights out full of fantasies and flames the burn the floor beneath my feet i search the shadows for your eyes closed almost awake and its later than you think the night says "its the wind and a foolish, false vision" that in some room somewhere i told you all the sins i think in between dreams you drive around, pro-slavery that hell you've helped create yet render it so pleasant it looks like heaven and it makes me believe that i'll be OK

he was successful guy he had his picture taken at the age of 25 he was a hot shot business man he was making a lot of money he had always been successful it started to turn on him his, if you will, sin, caught up with him

about

i thought certainly it must be
that Beatrice will die
then i, i had to close my eyes
and in the waning wind that came and went
i thought i heard it said
"thou too art dead in time
so hold your tongue all cold and come
see our lady where she lies"

when i open my eyes
i cried
"oh Beatrice, oh please, will you believe in this?"
