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 greed

Of a million hundred eyes, I've arrived 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 playing with your blood

In the end, in the end

There's a mistress in our bed, with a thousand pounds on her head

On the 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

But I am afraid of your flood

Let me hold back the tears I'm sitting on

I will be playing with your blood

In the end, in the end.
