Don't Look Down

Joseph of Caraway
Worth and unwise
Took shortcuts to his demise
Footsteps and treading on only the cracks
Leave the shapes of cloven tracks
Innocent, innocent bound
Misery, misery bound
Penitence, penitence sound
Vera Vandermark
All dressed in white
Never slept without the light
Headless rattlesnakes
Inside their caves
Preying on the souls of slaves
Innocent, innocent bound
Misery, misery bound
Penitence, penitence
Sound the church bells
Burn the flowers
Call upon the darkest hours
Storytellers
Penance swerving
Strike the pure and undeserving
Silver suit and knives
All in line
Waiting to commit their crimes
Chiseled china falls
Their bitter meat
Stained red pearly canine teeth
Innocent, innocent bound
Misery, misery bound
Penitence, penitence
Sound the church bells
Burn the flowers
Call upon the darkest hours
Storytellers
Penance swerving
Strike the pure and undeserving
Don't look down
Don't look down
Don't look down
Innocent, innocent bound
Misery, misery bound
Penitence, penitence
Sound the church bells
Burn the flowers
Call upon the darkest hours
Storytellers
Penance swerving
Strike the pure and undeserving
