Emily Sue, Cont'd Songtext
Songtext powered by LyricFind
White pine, the moon is so high
You see where you?re going with your eyes closed
Wild-eyed, growl and smoke
Return every question in the same tone
There?s a state line, out in those pines, buried in frozen ground, we?ve chosen our sides, Now we can?t turn it around
Chain Emily to the stake
Her family?s worried, she?s terribly late
A haze rolling across the lake
If we go, who?s to know, dead by morning if we stay
A burnt tongue, the paper unfolds
slipping it through another keyhole
Slim hope of fireproof rope
Kerosene off of your sweet nose
It?s a steak knife into my thigh, watching you flicker in real time, call your own kind
now we can?t turn it around
Fates, give a warm soul a break
Just give me a life where you?re nothing but mine, and that?s how it will stay
But hey, I?ve never been so afraid
With this cold in my bones, and a child engulfed in flame
You see where you?re going with your eyes closed
Wild-eyed, growl and smoke
Return every question in the same tone
There?s a state line, out in those pines, buried in frozen ground, we?ve chosen our sides, Now we can?t turn it around
Chain Emily to the stake
Her family?s worried, she?s terribly late
A haze rolling across the lake
If we go, who?s to know, dead by morning if we stay
A burnt tongue, the paper unfolds
slipping it through another keyhole
Slim hope of fireproof rope
Kerosene off of your sweet nose
It?s a steak knife into my thigh, watching you flicker in real time, call your own kind
now we can?t turn it around
Fates, give a warm soul a break
Just give me a life where you?re nothing but mine, and that?s how it will stay
But hey, I?ve never been so afraid
With this cold in my bones, and a child engulfed in flame
