lyrics

the sky was hot, the land was dry
when I first caught a glimpse of you
poking your head out from the clouds
dressed in black with white trim
you crashed in on me with the grace of an uninvited guest
realizing they've interrupted a stranger in the shower
the hunger in your eyes,
I maybe would have fled, but

you sunk your claws into me like a bird of prey
and lifted me up into the skies above

you sunk your claws into me like a bird of prey
and lifted me up into the sky
a tickle of a feather and I'm crashing back down

when I awoke, alone, I felt so empty, so dead
I fell apart until I figured out I was being ridiculous
and so I pulled myself out of my pit of despair
and went to the place where I hoped you'd be lying in wait
we can dance and twirl for a while, then I'll drop you home, babe

don't be alarmed by the bones and skulls that decorate the mantel piece
