Body Shop

William slides the gates out
As buzzards cry and glide across the lake
Headlights coming up the road
They park onto the pits
And strip the cars to their bones

His father opened up a body shop
He'd toil night and day
Until he his heart gave out
And William the found the debts
He could never pay

He'd do ten cars in a night
With a little snow to help him speed up the game
And walk out in to the day light
To pay off the debts inherited
To his name

One cold evening
Will looked on to the lake
The wind carried the silence
Then they were charging up the road on the breeze
The police sirens

He ran out into the lake
Out in to the deepest darkest place
He crawled on to the banks
Held up beyond the trees
Barely breathing

They were shutting down his daddy's body shop
Raping all the memories of the cornerstone
He turned into the brush
Leaving his footprints
In his homeland
