Cold As Clay

from Mortis Nervosa by Vudu Sister

/

lyrics

She’s at the door in the dead of night
Ringing the bell, she’s a stranger to love and ignore
She’s just a whore without a price
Another whore with nothing to give but a…
Short lie and a shot of wisdom
Sometimes she’s my enemy
She covers me with a leather blanket
And she smiles at me

Back at the barn lives an imbecile
Collecting quarters and saving the heads of dead birds
He used to steal but now he lies
Now he’s laying on the ground in a puddle of blood
He got high so they couldn’t catch him
Now his skin is as cold as clay
And the myths of his temper tantrums
Are miles and miles away

Let’s tie her to her Breaking Wheel
We’ll crush the bones that never would break on their own
Don’t think this time we’ll let her down
Don’t want the pressure of giving the children
A short mile to a disappointment
So saturnine on a Saturday
The Wound Man and the Joy of Cooking
Is all I need at the end of the day
It’s like riding a merry-go-round
For days…
