lyrics

lookin' down through the mountain air
so unsure of how the birds have fared
they flew to the hills from the walls in your kitchen
manslaughter being broadcast live
wonder why he won't just take a dive
my father voice says "boy you're just wishing"

pawning all you watches and rings away
ruined all my albums with nicotine stains
puzzled doctors on the ballroom floor
snowy threshold to the chapel door
it's plowed
but all for nothing

blood and booze to ease my pen
well runs dry and so I dip again
until I find I'm just repeating their mantras
missed my chances 'cause my words were white
caught in a windowless and walled in lie
and in my dreams they just keep chanting he'll haunt ya

pawning all you watches and rings away
ruined all my albums with nicotine stains
puzzled doctors on the ballroom floor
snowy threshold to the chapel door
it's plowed
but all for nothing

come down the mountain heed the call for blood
into the city sunken in the mud
we cracked his safe it's not a question of money
in baby blue when they covered you
the days were pinned upon your brand new suit
but thank the lord this time it was sunny
