All the bones in my back
Start to rally up against me
And my veins tighten up
And constrict like snakes
In the choir you stand,
Start to read from the Qur'an
I can't do my part,
I am not a man
So I kneel down in the fireplace
So the ashes can clean my face
But I don't know what suffering is
But I'd find that out if it would clear your sins
If you froze to death,
I would lay you on the table
And I would fix you up
With metal parts
And I would sew you shut
With the strings from your mother's harp
And I would run you down
Just to test your heart
So I lie down for a month at a time,
Let the moss grow on my northern side
And I shake it off every time you're near
But there's just no point, you can't see me clear no more
So I'll change my shape into that of Dionysus
And I will tie you up with screeching vines
And I will take you down to the coastline where I'll feed you
To the great white whale that haunts your mind
And he will spit you out and you'll be a different person
With your serpent soul all rearranged
So what's done is done
Just be glad that no one saw you
When you disappeared into desert air

Taylor Swift has three songs in my Top 25 favorite songs of all time. Twenty-two other people are tied for second place. This cover of "Blank Space" is excellent and has a good chance of breaking into my Top 25. bruce123

A stunning follow-up to 'Grandfather'. I never thought another Tigers On Trains record would see the light of the day but I'm so happy it did. Highly recommend checking out Christian and Mason's other band, The Republic Of Wolves. Thomas Riley Lanyon

Clever thought provoking lyrics,
"You had built a new face, empty but awake, painted it the one shade you could never fake"
Beautifully composed. This is a re-recording of "His Old Branches" yet manages to feel fresh and important to The Republic of Wolves discography. I'm joining a cult.
