Guilty By Association - Dalbello

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

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

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
