Long Way To Earth... Part 4


And to Bella, a local town girl and kitchen aid who was sitting next to them by the cooking fires of the High Castle, Bromford, the bard said, 'I used to be the greatest and bestest bard of all towns and times, you know. I once gave Marie-Antoinette a wonderful dream about cakes and cookies the last night before her decapitation.'

'Who is Marie-Antoinette?' Bella asked.

'And what is a decapitation?' the llama wanted to know.

'Marie-Antoinette was the former Queen of the Kingdom of France', the bard answered, 'and it was the last night before she lost her head.'

'Oh', said the llama as it understood.

'She lost her head?' asked Bella, the kitchen aid. 'Where did she put it? In one of her many, many drawers and cupboards?'

'Dummy', said the llama rudely, 'she didn't lose it like in she mislaid it. They cut off her head with a sharp blade they called the Guillotine.'

'Oh', Bella sighed puzzled and shocked and she hurried away from the warmth and the lights of the cooking fires into the night as quick as she could.

The llama's looks followed her through the kitchen door into the dark of the hallways and corridors of the silently sleeping High Castle of Bromford.

"Bromford To Bella, Pt. 1"

Bromford to Bella
You think you've got it all figured in
Bromford to Bella
Everything you know is wrong. Well, almost
Bromford to Bella
I've seen when you are not listening
I bear the burden
Of being the voice that lets you know
We all grow old

And before you swim you've got to be okay to sink

Bromford to Bella
The world can be an unfriendly place
So hold your head up (Hold your head up)
And do your best to save some face
It's not so hard
Just undo yourself and see a
Second sun ascend

Okay to sink
I'm okay to sink
Okay to sink
Okay to sink

"Bromford To Bella, Pt. 2"

Bromford to Bella
This is a quiet emergency
Bromford to Bella
There's so much more to get than wronged
Bromford to Bella
You're treading water successfully
But are you really
Don't you want to see the deep
It's not so hard
Just forgive yourself and feel the water open in
