Arguing with the Ghost of Peter Laughner About His Coney Island Baby Review

[Verse 1]
Just imagine a time and place
Sentient objects adrift in space
Trying to do the needful math
Trying to find the secret path

[Chorus 1]
Seas gone silent in the spiral shell
When you fell

[Verse 2]
Blazing torches to light the way
All fuel burned right up in just one day
Will there be another way?
That won't be for you to say

[Chorus 2]
You who took with you the ancient spell
When you fell

[Bridge]
Hurt too hard too long and die too young
Silver dollar glistening on your tongue

[Verse 3]
May your passage be assured
There may your foul afflictions all be cured
Systems closing down on several fronts
You will always have been here once

[Chorus 3]
Cap the west's final wildcat well
When you fell
