Lyrics

Pile Of Tiny Shoes

Back to other lyrics

There's a pile of tiny shoes next to a shallow hole,
And a tiny startled body lay rigid upon the snow.
There's a pipeline by their bodies that's nine bodies tall,
And the moon above the mountain watched all them bodies fall.
They got piles of crumbling towers, miles of broken trains,
Black circles along the edges, of skylights filled with praise(?).
Where their (daygone)? up the rivers, and (fell on)? nailed with chains,
There's a tiny tangled flag, only torn up with flames.
There lay on tiny bodies on tiny paper cups,
There's men explodin' in the corridors, and the funerals won't stop.
Scrawl famine 'cross their billboards, and above their parking lots,
Bless them tiny troubled dreamers, with their precious worried thoughts.
They're tangled in the treeline where the precious sunset drops.
There's a pile of tiny shoes next to a shallow hole,
And a tiny startled body lay ripped up on the snow.

Goddamn them privledged ponies (police?), their daggers hit with blades (place?)
God rewards the heartless, and turns away His face.
Embrace and pour the water and (tremble?) up this storm,
And dwindle precious twilight, with misery and scorn.

The devil raised upon Him, the (gill)? a perfect (play)?
(Dark)? circles cross? your oceans and fills the world with rain.
Start chasin' all a sunset when the devil's work gets done,
All the birds go march on prayin', towards a hunter's patient gun.

Don't trouble me with (conscience)? or a gentle caring fling,
Evicting of children, and the war 'gainst the flood.
And there's some ol' world, they're for 2 things that are sure,
The beauty of children and the war 'gainst the flood.

So don't trouble me with conscience or gentle caring flames
Just give this heart of promise and send it on its' way.
God rewards the heartless and turns away His face,
All the birds go march on, prayin', twas a hunter's privledged grace
All the birds go march on, prayin', twas a hunter's privledged grace
