Cecilia and the Silhouette Saloon

Lyrics

[Verse: 1: Jordan Blilie, Johnny Whitney, both] Murder = White Out Cancer = Birth Blouse Mirror = Perfect Glass Spouse Oil = Sex Paint Shower = Water Saint Death decodes the howls from our hands [Verse 2: Johnny Whitney, Jordan Blilie, Both] Skull = Noise Test TV = Fuck Test Mirror = Siamese Gun Kiss Sugar = Birth Bait Murder = Loves Fate Death distills the camouflage from our dance [Refrain 1: Jordan Blilie & Johnny Whitney] Death inverts the red from romance Death X-rays the angels of chance Death, the anti-mirror of infants Like a picture hiding beneath the digital avalanche [Verse 3: Jordan Blilie, Johnny Whitney, Both] Murder = White Out Cancer = Birth Blouse Mirror = Perfect Glass Spouse Oil = Sex Paint Shower = Water Saint Death decodes the howls from our hands [Interlude: Johnny Whitney & Jordan Blilie] Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah! Yeah! [Verse 4: Jordan Blilie with Johnny Whitney] When Cecilia's grave cracked like a dirt cocoon She pulled up a stool at the Silhouette Saloon The player piano's mumbling crippled jigs Black widows knitting victimless wigs When Cecilia's throat slit like a second set of lips She drooled braille bibles onto the brothel bed spread Like an egg whose yoke defies child-bearing hips Like a ghost who fears all of the deceased and dead [Interlude: Johnny Whitney] Time eats at the flesh and spits out the shadow Like a useless wishbone, like a useless wishbone! [Bridge: Johnny Whitney] But that locket spinning around her neck Whose hearth heats a dead valentine And the paper trail leads way to a muted grave, yeah To a muted grave, yeah [Breakdown: Johnny Whitney & Jordan Blilie] Where's his voice now? = A dead tone in the flutter of drunken wings Where is his blushed cheek now? = A face unraveled in shadow, veiled in blind laughter Where are those sex ripened lips? = His kiss print still warm on several necks Where is love now? Where is love now? [Refrain 2: Johnny Whitney & Jordan Blilie] Where is love now? Bah-bah-boo-bah-bo-bo Where is love now? A-bah-bah-boo-bo Where is love now? Bah-bah-boo-bah-bo-bo Where is love now? Bah-bah-boo-bo Where is love now? Bah-bah-boo-bah-bo-bo Where is love now? Bah-bah-boo-bo [Verse 5: Jordan Blilie, Johnny Whitney, Both] Murder = White Out Cancer = Birth Blouse Mirror = Perfect Glass Spouse Oil = Sex Paint Shower = Water Saint Death decodes the howls from our hands [Verse 6: Johnny Whitney, Jordan Blilie, Both] Skull = Noise Test TV = Fuck Test Mirror = Siamese Gun Kiss (Yeah) Sugar = Birth Bait Murder = Loves Fate Death distills the camouflage from our dance [Refrain 1: Jordan Blilie & Johnny Whitney] Death inverts the red from romance Death X-rays the angels of chance Death, the anti-mirror of infants Like a picture hiding beneath the digital avalanche [Outro: Johnny Whitney & Jordan Blilie] Like a picture hiding beneath the digital avalanche! Like a picture hiding beneath the digital avalanche! Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah! Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah! Yeah!
