tombstone - sons of perdition and jaran hereid lyrics

Loading...

a sprawling old corpse all tangled in scrub
mummified under the molten gold sun
that vomits harsh light, a dime museum display
there isn’t any dignity left in this grave
lying in the sun

tourists buzz about and alight on parched skin
drunk on nostalgia, romance, and vinegar
the floorboards creak with age, atrophy and wilt
dust powders the windows in delicate silt
staring at the sun

rafters breach rooflines and trees shatter porches
fingernails grow after the soul long divorces
houses erode to sand, dead skin in the wind
decay at a glacial pace, old as the land
and witnessed by the sun

the timbers hang and sag and show the structure beneath:
ribs under skin, punished under their feet
that wind a death rattle ripped from the throat of a wh0re
hubcaps gleam dully from branches and doors
shining in the sun

extinguished life, evaporated gasoline
a musty shroud pulled over a face drawn and lean
no spirit haunts these walls, no ghost lingers here
a thousand drowned murmurs all lost in the air
sacrificed to the sun
all dried up and gone
the crowds go howling on
