Bright Eyes - Arienette Lyrics
The fragile keep secrets, gathered in pockets, and they will sell them for nothing a cheap watchor locket that kind of gold washes off. The sad at like lepers, they stick to the shadows and longto ring bells of warning to tell of their coming so that the pure can shut their doors. The angry areanimals senseless and savage. They act without order in logical lapses, they stain their mouthswith blood. So take my hand, this barren land is alive tonight. The corn has grown stalks thatform a wall that hides. The wind carries sounds that I can't see from beyond that line. Then thestalks begin to sway oh stay with me Arienette until the wolves are away. The wicked arevultures, they bake in the canyons. They circle in sunlight and wait for their victims to collapseand call to them. The desperate are water. They will run down forever and soak into silence tojust end up together in some dark and distant place. So don't leave me here with only mirrorswatching me. This house it holds nothing but the memories. And the moon it leaves silver butnever sleep. And then the silver turns to gray so stay with me Arienette until the wolves are away.
