Sullivan The Charity of Saint Elizabeth Lyrics:
Cold and fever wrap disease around your neck.
Here's hemostats to stop the flow of blood. Summer
freckles hide the roses on your cheeks. Does
heaven keep a place for her inside? Breathe until
it freezes, colors carry phantoms to theirs
graves. What leaks in, will seep out, the run-off
from the gutter tells the story of our child. The
message in the water, "the kids are going
home tonight" I know the voice of orderly all
too well. "Call the parents on theirs cell
phones." You see, they need to get get here
right now, because there is an angel in the place
of the boy next door. "I'm afraid I've got
some bad news" Something's in this room
tonight, and something's in this place and I'm

right here waiting. Something's in this room
tonight, death has found escape and I'm right here
waiting and I'm right here. Look under the bed.
Stop striking matches to disguise the smell, we
all know, all day all night all we hear, is blue
bouncing through the walls as Madre' Santiago
takes a knee and she screams to the fluorescents.
"All our lives for this one night."
"Our sleep can't hide from you."
"So take my dreams in place of me."
"I reach my hand to you." Something's in
this room tonight, and something's in this place
and I'm right here waiting. Something's in this
room tonight, death has found escape and I'm right
here waiting and I'm right here. Look under the
bed. Slip through the crack, a gathering of
adults, white skirts, blue-green scrubs shaking
their heads. Stop pointing your fingers and making
your rounds, its not going to be me, its not going
to be me.
