The Heir

Welcome to the dance

The silence of skin and bones colliding

Ahh, love

Waking up the dead and moving the listless

My arms, limbs come alive like they were vestiges

Of a dying language that we accepted forfeit

Before you both were born

Now what has turned up missing

And what the dead took with it

And no one here really knows how bad for sure

We simply didn't see the need

And there was no connection, all agreed?

But don't worry your mind so

This has got nothing to do with

Welcome to the dance

It's a fragile sway

Back and forth, together, now separate

Those who came before us and used our names for ransom

No one left here among us can know for sure

We simply didn't see the need

And there was no connection, all agreed?

But don't worry your mind so

This has got nothing to do with you

It was just beneath our second skin

And it fused onto our skeleton

But don't worry your mind so

This is not your province

It's complicated, but

I shouldn't have to say this

It's got nothing to do with you

I turn my music up

Screaming to tune you out

Locked in my room

It's got nothing to do with you

It's got nothing to do with you

Welcome to the dance

We simply didn't see the need

And there was no connection, all agreed?

But don't worry your mind so

This has got nothing to do with you

It was just beneath our second skin

And it fused onto our skeleton

But honey don't worry your mind so

This has got nothing to do with you
