Listen to Aces Wild by Richard Charles Stevens (Hollywood Suite)

Listen to Hollywood Suicide by GHØSTKID

♠
Living breathing hardcore soldier
Still unbeaten
Far more bold than tales of old foretold as She takes hold of fate and dictates play
♠
All in at the river blind
To play the table one more time
Calling
Raising
All appraising
Poker face unchanging
Luck she be a lady on this night
Her royal flush
My dangerous delight
(Aces wild)
♠
from sunrise
through the dead of night
the staircase winds to my delight
the ties of bind bid sweet release
each step a key to destiny
awakened from the skin i shed
to make a mound to rest my head
in bosom of the only she
who ever felt like home to me
♠
so many souls within her keep
no more charmed hold of essence steeped
entreating she to set a scene seen fleetingly in treasured dreams
leisured to proceed am i
with heedful eye for feeder line
need not such sight anaesthetise
for mine is not to reason why
♠
All in at the river blind

All appraising
Poker face unchanging
Luck she be a lady on this night
Her royal flush
My dangerous delight
(Aces wild)
♠
Would bet on black to taste her red
To trace the tracks of tears she bled
Adhere to years of retrospect
That led me here
In fever sped
Her heaving breast
A place to rest my head
For all eternity
Yet she need never hear a single word from me
To see the gift of ceaseless love returned by me

with heedful eye for feeder line
need not such sight anaesthetise

♠
I yearn to seep within cracks of her skin
Double back to enrapture each vein underpinned
To amaze in the stature of one so unhinged
From the framework of secrets and lies
♠
Her eyes relay no cheap mistruth
Her heart bleeds grape of sweet vermouth
Confiding seeds of deepest root
No wise man would deny
All of me
Is all I have to give
And I would give it all to see her live her life the way a reawakened child might play
Calling
Raising
All appraising
Face unchanging
Brave and wild
I would gamely fade to black
To hang my hat upon her fragrant smile
♠
All in at the river blind
To see the lady bathed in white
For she has claimed a place inside
This liberated heart of mine
Falling
Rising
Tantalising every part of me inclined
To venerate a masterpiece
As we reprise our timeless maiden flight
