Cellar Door

Cellar door
Matador
Spanish bullshit
Crap

Toilet bowl
Scummy rim
Dirty meaning
Stop!

Start again
Repeat the name
Cellar door
Once more

Cellar door
Cellar door
cellophane
And pain

Lock me in
Shoot the bolt
Down the stairs
Again

Red cape
Flies
Planes above
Looking through the
Crack
Cellar light
Burning bright
Shouting out the
Night

Cellar door
Open up
Let the breath come
Back
Up the flight
Hold the rail
Skin is pale and
Damp

Cellar tomb
Its my room
Weird and wonder
Lust
Secrets stay
Where they
Lay
Cellar door
Shuts
Tight

something wrong with my gear tonight I couldn't figure out. I'll do it better when I figure it out or better still record it yourself.

gutsy, powerful and beautiful.
Maybe it wasn't my software but my guts letting me down.
Terrific work in every sense of the word terrific.

The brevity of the lines and the steam of thought process. Nice work!

There is value to commenting and critique, tell us how you feel about our work.
This must be the place, 'cause there ain't no place like this place anywhere near this place.

everything about it.The quick pace and the language use go hand in hand to show the thrill behind the cellar door.
Thumbs up to the job done so well.
