That rattling sound calls out to me again
The rosary resonates with me
The wind whistles a coy melody
Oh, Mother Moon, the things I’d do for you
Tracing the rim of forthcoming night
I’ve danced on my grave a thousand times
Sacrificing all them vacuous thoughts
Oh, Mother, what have I done?
The moon bares its teeth
Sink ’em in
Bones of Mary
Scattered on the spiral staircase, listen up
Bones of Mary
I’m cursed to descend forever
Did you close your eyes? Did you count the time?
Did we make it past midnight?
Were we alive when the end was just another milestone?
Did you close your eyes and lose track of time?
Was there nothing past midnight?
And we aligned when the end was something to die for
The mausoleum corridors scream madly
I’ve been reaching for the beacon that smiles at me
I hold these bones close and wait for rapture
Oh, Mother Moon, it’s all for you
Come on, sink ’em in
Moon bares its teeth
Now close your eyes
Until we align, until midnight
Now close your eyes and lose track of time
Was there nothing past midnight?
Until we align, one last midnight
