Mountain Spines

There's a place in our minds

Where the sun ceases to shine

And the mountains of our spines are cast in shadows

There's a fortress in the sea

And a lake that beads with the green

Of a million hundred eyes, I'm not right now

In the end

I'm not allowed to be scared anymore

But I am afraid of your flood

Let me hold back the tears I'm sitting on

I will be plagued with your blood

In the end, in the end

Ooh-whoa-oh-oh

Ooh-whoa-oh-oh

There's a mistress in a bed

With a thousand pounds on her head

On a poster on the wall above the light switch

The sheets are damp and old

And her skin is freckled with mold

But the queue outside the door

Stretches right out

To the sea

I'm not allowed to be scared anymore

I am afraid of your flood

Let me hold back the tears I'm sitting on

I will be plagued with your blood

In the end, in the end

Ooh-whoa-oh-oh

Ooh-whoa-oh-oh

Ooh-whoa-oh-oh

Ooh-whoa-oh-oh
