The night left you dirty   a grudge your hangover   First day back in the light   use the crowd as your cover   Don't know why you would come   don't see how you're undone   don't see rust, any dust,   what you need never us   what's the loss that you brought   what's the need you need healed   if not family why pray, if not money why kneel   must have got lonesome at home on your porcelain shrine   now you're out and about, test if you're still alive   widow, drop those bones   I know you were never alone   so you come take your seat   in the pew by the door   soprano, and you pray   break your bread   then you leave   didn't think that you made it when you opened your eyes   thought you died while on top of the funeral pyre   now the teeth and the fleas buried under your skin   and handshakes are falling like blades at your chin   widow, drop those bones   I know you were never alone   willow, brittle from snow   drops slow to the mud below and the dew   from the grass   on the grave   you wake up on   dries up   as you start the mourning   and the ash   petrified   on the tips   of your lashes   wiped away   by an unseen hand   turn you around   lay down your crown   knock down the tables   and follow the singing out   singing out   the night left you dirty   a grudge, your hangover   first day back in the light   use the crowd as your cover
