Guilty By Association
Lisa Dal Bello
She turned
A twisted smile
I felt her envy
And then suddenly she turned and bared her teeth in distaste
And I said, "what would you know... how could you ever know?"
His mouth was a tight cruel line
I recognized it's implications:
He had a snapshot... it was a photo of us
We were Guilty By Association
CHORUS
With one easy stroke...
My entire world was zero
What - do you mean - by that?
A series of events strung together...
A matter of chance becomes a matter-of-fact... fact
CHORUS
With one easy stroke... one slight gesture
My entire world was zero
With one easy stroke... one light gesture
My entire world was zero
TAG CHORUS:
His mouth
A twisted smile
I recognized it's implications
A snapshot
We were Guilty By Association
