Crooked Arrows

In this movie dream, the lights flickering
Shadows dancing on the screen
Ghost voices in the church are deflowering
Floating up and over

Poison excrete
Out into the street
Where we will meet

I'm making my new home in this abandoned lot
Children will be lead like pack rats into my toilet paper church

Siren's(?) chorus choir sings out a tune in a garden
And I'm drowning in the lights that swim behind my closed eyes
It's a funeral for every song that we've ever know
That we've ever known

I got my reasons for this silent sermon
I just can't explain
I know I've sown my own mouth shut
It's just best I keep quiet

'Cus when I speak
The words don't do a thing to explain what I mean

The author of all things whispered in your ear while you were asleep
You're not alone with crooked arrows like you used to think
Daddy's a bastard child born of your ignorance and your arrogance
And I'm drowning in the lights that swim behind my closed eyes
It's a funeral for every song that we've ever known
That we've ever known
That we've ever known
