lyrics

Dog came back with a kill
Filled the place with a horrible smell that’s
Kind of hard to describe
You will know how I feel in good time

Crooked and barren, a mile from the wreck
Thistles and ivy grow out of the deck
Rope in the hallway, chains on the door
Axes had made some remarks in the floor

Ten years have passed since the place had a guest
The wolf and the serpent contained in the crest
Have faded away to expressionless mounds
Just as the rise and the fall of the ground

The clock in the kitchen says it’s right now
And the clock in the kitchen says it’s right now
Time erases the attachments,
Erases the effects of all the books and all the records of my lifetime!

I had a crazy dream
Where I shot everyone whose name came before mine in the alphabet
My spirit was rough my spirit was shaggy
Fuck!

Arming myself with a pipe from the yard
I got to the roof through a hole that was sawed
Expanding before me a landscape of pain
Unseen by the sun and untouched by the rain

The bell was alive and had no look of wear
I raised an arm high and put its sound in the air
A cold breath took mine, two white eyes and lips pursed
Superimposed on the vibrating earth

And a strange thing happened in the belltower!
