It’s tearing apart
In the strangest way
I’ll never know
How it works
Back and forth
Look at every angle
So every man
Can understand
The shadows in their heart
The crows will serenade us
Singing their saddest song
Holding court high above me
The whole night long
And we’re off to walk alone
The peaceful drowning pool
Where the children are lost
Among the trees
Where I’m not brave enough
In secret gardens
Pretty flowers
So poisonous
I wait for you
At midnight
To see if you will come
If your palms
Are held open
If your strong heart
Will be true
Dark horses will be waiting
To ride us through the fields
Air surrender to the breathing
The devil roses bloom
Your leather straps are tight
Across my back
The tightening of the rope
It’s tearing apart
In the strangest way
I’ll never understand
