Raincoats
A million miles from shore
The waves come washing slow
Laid out and bare
Nowhere to turn back to
Unstained squares in the dull moonlight
The tap runs smooth and strong
Calls on cracks in bones unwhite
Stumbling on and on
A sickle moon lights up my true love's face
Dancing in the dark
The mirror's screaming a circus gait
Then light tears me apart
Where do you go, the ground gone between us
When you return you wear a new sleeve
One's for the treason under my bed
Glass and silken stone
Then for the faces, one by one
All lined up in a row
Now cause I've drifted far from the pen
And now cause there's no one home
I promised to pull you inside of this mess
Beneath the circling crows
Where do you go, the ground gone between us
When you return you wear a new sleeve
Footsteps flash through the cracks, claim the light
Don't open the door
The corridor's folding back on the night
Don't open the door
They're picking at locks and calling them out
Scratches and splinters
The trapdoor edges smooth all around
Don't open the door
The waves come washing slow
Laid out and bare
Nowhere to turn back to
Unstained squares in the dull moonlight
The tap runs smooth and strong
Calls on cracks in bones unwhite
Stumbling on and on
A sickle moon lights up my true love's face
Dancing in the dark
The mirror's screaming a circus gait
Then light tears me apart
Where do you go, the ground gone between us
When you return you wear a new sleeve
One's for the treason under my bed
Glass and silken stone
Then for the faces, one by one
All lined up in a row
Now cause I've drifted far from the pen
And now cause there's no one home
I promised to pull you inside of this mess
Beneath the circling crows
Where do you go, the ground gone between us
When you return you wear a new sleeve
Footsteps flash through the cracks, claim the light
Don't open the door
The corridor's folding back on the night
Don't open the door
They're picking at locks and calling them out
Scratches and splinters
The trapdoor edges smooth all around
Don't open the door
