lyrics

In the Blue Ridge foothills winters cracking it's whip.
Glass stalactites cling to the bus stop roof
footprints in the snow; clovenhooved.
Yesterday wasn't too bad. I just drank and stayed indoors.
Red wine stains on the edge of my mouth,
it's too late now to follow you south.

We've all lost touch with somebody
we think we love
But like the story of the olive branch and the
alabaster dove

Happy endings are only for a chosen few.

I hibernate during the daytime.
I set fire to the wicks at night.
Paint pictures of a man in an obsidian crown
It's getting clearer every day:
There's no escaping this town.

Twin snakes coil around my neck
when I dream
I see visioned of a white masked man, but
I've never sat through Scream

Horror movies never scare me like the world around me can.



Amazing
Grace
How sweet the sound
May the angel of death watch over me
When he makes his nightly rounds

Amazing grace
I shattered long ago
Will you scoop up the remnants?
Will you make me whole?

I never saw you coming.
I never saw you coming.
But if I'd seen you coming...

I would've let you ride in.
