Hotel Room 139

from This​/​That by Ok Housecat

/

lyrics

her friend sully says nothing except that he's fine
(and of knots in his mind) but someone this kind
is not at all someone you go and just find
only in hotel room 139

sullivan offers to give her a shot
and before she can tell him that maybe it's not the best plan
considering the things she's been taught
but her brain somehow finds it the preferable plot

now she's thinking in knots and they're tied round her arm
denying fresh fuel to the blaring alarm
like that broken machine needs her blood as thedcharm
to pierce the balloon but protect it from harm

and so for now the cogs turn about, rotate, and shift
she gives Sully some cigs and her thanks even if
she receives crushing regret as reciprocate gift
so she thinks to forget but arrives just as swift

and when it comes knocking to burn down her home
she'll demolish herself to escape that bleak drone
of an irony steady, a fine metronome
keeping time for remainders, even if just a poem
