The Ballad of Julian Keller

There's nothing louder than the silence
That echoes after the laughter
When all the jesters and all the dancers
Take their leave to a state of disaster
Stumble through the throes of ecstasy
Barking up a storm, but I got no teeth
Spin to win, skin to skin
Surely a night to be forgotten

I know I hit you with shots that I meant for myself
From bottles of poison that I self-prescribed
To heal all the damage I left in my mind
I know you earned you wrath with every sin I'd commit
Forgiveness is privilege, I should be without
Your vengeance's my penance for dragging you down

There's nothing louder than the silence
That echoes after the laughter
When all the jesters and all the dancers
Take their leave to a state of disaster
Stumble through the throes of ecstasy
Barking up a storm, but I got no teeth
Spin to win, skin to skin
Surely a night to be forgotten
