Frontier Ruckus - Dark Autumn Hour lyrics

Anne, let's die in some dim town My brown eyes wait to weigh us down The candles 'round the tub will drown, In our afternoons Music from our evening parlor Darker than the autumn hour I gave my child twenty dollars For tearing at our moons Dark damp men muddied our house In my dreams to bleed your blouse I smiled from my sleep to douse The horror of this hour Our boy on dark hills blurry crawling His rain-glazed shaking porches falling The homes of all his friends just sprawling, Withering like flowers Anne, I've loved you from a boy No other autumn could destroy The town our winds fused to enjoy, Whispering dark farmlands Tearing moons, these moons are tearing Swearing terror inside their daring, Crumbling prayers, dark autumns faring, Straight out of our hands
