Lyrics

The fragile keep secrets
 Gathered in pockets
 And they will sell them for nothing
 A cheap watch or locket
 That kind of gold washes off
 And the sad act like lepers
 They stick to the shadows
 They long to ring bells of warning
 To tell of their coming
 So that the pure can shut their doors
 ♪
 And the angry are animals
 Senseless and savage
 They act without order
 In logical lapses
 They stain their mouths with blood
 ♪
 So take my hand
 This barren land is alive tonight
 Oh, the corn has grown stalks
 That form a wall to hide
 But the wind carries sounds
 That I can't see from beyond that line
 Then the stalks begin to sway
 Oh, stay with me, Arienette
 Until the wolves are away yeah!
 ♪
 Well the wicked are vultures
 And they bake in the canyons
 They circle in sunlight
 And wait for their victims
 To collapse and call to them
 ♪
 And the desperate are water
 They'll run down forever
 As they soak into silence
 And end up together
 In a dark and distant, dark and distant place
 So don't leave me here with only mirrors watching me
 This house, it holds nothing but the memories
 And the moon, it leaves silver but never sleep
 And then the silver turns to gray
 Oh stay with me, Arienette
 Until the wolves are away
