The Skeletons( Skeletons )

Xenia

There's a pale girl singing dead songs to the midnight sky
And her madness is reflecting in my eyes
Mama, tell your children not to go where the river runs
For there are wolves high on the stench of virgin blood

She's waiting back there for me out on the porch
Making bloody paper chains of headless dolls
I'm laying in the tall grass clutching my Father's gun
Staring blankly; waiting for the death of the sickly sun

I don't know if I can be any more than I am today

Underneath the stars and through the backwoods
Eating mushrooms; kicking the Earth from beneath us
Mama, tell your children not to go where the river runs
For there are wolves high on the stench of virgin blood

Rays of blinding light intrude through
The boarded windows of this institute
We were alone here
We are at peace here
Forever
