Lyrics

At the edge of the flame
Where the heat is so clear
Where there is nowhere left to hide
The smoke curls inside
The blue cellophane
In the neon shattered night
And all her days she spent in despair
Small cafés with her coat on the chair
The horse's head from the dustcover stared
How it stared
How it stared
Patterns of rain
Pearls of sweat
The stalls of the stable were clean
The locks of the mane
The veins of the neck
Were taut and the nostrils were lean
And all her days she'd been waiting for this ride
The thundering hooves and the moment to decide
The thrust of thighs and the scream from deep inside
Deep inside
Deep inside
At the edge of the flame
Where it always has been
As long as you don't reach inside
She swallowed the wine
She shattered the glass
She somehow felt denied
And all the night the waiter paced the room
Wondering how and where and when to make his move
He stooped to sweep the glass, returned the stiffened broom
And she was gone
She was gone
