The Rumour Said Fire - The Post Mortem Make Us Men lyrics

Winter got to them while leaning their bodies against the wall The bathtub-settle-down felt the water going down the drain As they put their heads to sleep and dreamt of leaving it all behind The thousands of people they pa** in the street made them nervous Though spring was a kid, they grasp him by the roots And his arm like plants torn from one another Sudden d**h - dinner's set All the words in the air are chairs and tables breaking bone And he'd love to settle down, but everyone stares at d**h As if it would lead to foreign ground, my friend And he likes to dream about the worms, my dear! Swept in his blood - all the flowers are kept in his coffin Oh, the dread you can see in their eyes As he tells them to praise all their black fear He says: "Hospitals, you're just a kidney,a uterus, liver and blood, dear." Talking to God, you're just souls with a body - a dirty machine to wear Beat the drum, oh restless son Dancing in your coffin they will claim your past Paint his face, they say, he was my love! Dancing in his coffin he beats the drum There's a ghost in my closet, oh restless son There's a door in the darkness There's a beating heart But all my love is pushed away There's a ghost in my closet - a big black heart pounding on
