about

Inspired by an actress friend who seemed unaffected by the lovers who treated her badly, but actually stored and saved all of her anguish and turmoil for the stage.

lyrics

APRIL PEARL

Lay down your opera glass
On the table at your feet
Close your stinging eyes
And hold back a heartbeat
Pushing pulling tides whitewash many a girl
But never the insides of our April Pearl

Crouched in a pantomime corner
The rabbit’s hole appears on the ground
It’s so easy to dive in one more time
and fall down…

Tumbling the stairs
A glass ball reflects the light
Her eyes are like curtains
That rise on opening night
They tear and they scream at ribbons and curls
But only we dream of our April Pearl

Cigarette smoke in the darkness
Like dragons all grasping for air
It’s so sad for those who cannot be heartless
And cry an unspoken prayer

Another shell opened to let in the world
How easily broken is our April Pearl?

And you blush as we run for cover
You save the rush for Hamlet’s mother
Hamlet’s mother
