about
About:
Grace was the youngest of the siblings. She was another about whom I knew very little, but I took the scraps of knowledge I had and fleshed them out into a complete story.
lyrics
Lyrics:
An old dog howls
As the porch swing sways.
There’s a spirit in the air.
It’s making moves,
It’s taking names.
Grace sits above it all,
Hoping, planning for a change
And she hears the voices call.
And she knows:
They’re whispering her name.
“Sweet, sweet Gracie.”
With her lipstick and her perfect hair,
She’s got a smile that hides
That she don’t care
About anyone.
Anyway…
She’s the queen of kings,
One of a kind.
Can’t no one stop
Her fire-proof mind.
She’s got a mission all her own.
She’s setting out.
Her cover’s blown.
And only devils know the dark
That demons tell.
Sweet, sweet Gracie...
Church bell tolls,
Empty bottle on the bed.
There’s a haze about the room.
It’s hanging close.
It’s in her head.
She can’t remember how she got here
Or what she done.
It’s just the voices calling out.
Calling out…
To have some fun.
“Sweet, sweet Gracie…”
With her lipstick and her perfect hair,
She’s got a smile that hides
That she don’t care
About anyone.
Anyway…
She’s the queen of kings,
One of a kind.
Can’t no one stop
Her fire-proof mind.
She’s got a mission all her own.
She’s setting out.
Her cover’s blown.
And only devils know the dark
That demons tell.
Sweet, sweet Gracie.
Sweet, sweet Gracie.
“Sweet, sweet Gracie…”
With her lipstick and her perfect hair,
She’s got a smile that hides
That she don’t care
About anyone.
Anyway…
She’s the queen of kings,
One of a kind.
Can’t no one stop
Her fire-proof mind.
She’s got a mission all her own.
She’s setting out.
Her cover’s blown.
And only devils know the dark
That demons tell.
Take a look into her eyes.
You’ll see the mark.
She’ll give ‘em hell.
Sweet, sweet Gracie.
Sweet, sweet Gracie.
Sweet, sweet Gracie.
Only devils know the darkness
You can tell.
