Red
It's painted on
Hair up
She's fading
Ramshackle decadence

Thin as
A nylon fiber
Waves
In the light

Holding herself
Out
And up
Ramshackle decadence

She
Sent out
A message

Held up
A look
A hook
A lyre

I am here
Ramshackle decadence

Stumbles
Catches herself
Looks
At the floor
Then up
To my eyes

Reassurance
Hope
Ramshackle decadence

A sign of the mess
That
She's offering

And proudly
Softly
Spirit
Suffusing

I
This
Open
Created

I am here

(instrumental)

Here
In the
Light
Blurred
To
Cover

And
Shows instead
Beautiful
Vulnerable

Smeared
And
Tired

Wounded
And
Fired

Exactly
Right

Ramshackle decadence

No
Doubt
An
Arch

No
Doubt
A
Lance

No
Doubt
A
Chance

Of
Marching
Dancing
Through
The
Fire

No one
Could
Name
It

And
No one
Could
Claim
It

And
No one
Could
Blame
Her

Ramshackle decadence

No one
Could
Name
Her

And
No one
Could
Claim
Her

And
No one
Could
Blame
Her

Ramshackle decadence

No one
Could
Blame
Her

Ramshackle decadence

No one could blame her
Ramshackle decadence
