Song

Glass and the Ghost Children
Tuning :Eb
  
  
  
  
To the centre of the earth, or anywhere that god decides 
Full of fever pulling forth, We hear our call as all
Into the centre of the earth, as written in  
DNA is reaching out, to your frequency
  
I want to live  
Don't want to die  
I want to live  
I want to try  
All in prayer, prayer in all
All are scared, scared of all
Black rooms are calling, to men in leather coats
White labs are cooking up the silver ghost
The glass migrates under, her translucent skin
And all the spiders wonder, what we've got us in
All is you, you are all
All with you, you in all
  
I want to live  
Don't want to die  
I want to live  
I want to try 
Em7 Dsus2 | Em7 Dsus2
So beats the final coda, of a vinyl storm
One more cherry cola, to lift up her dead arms
A dream of soft focus sunsets, filters through the din
We are losing contact, as she dials away
She can hear glass calling, or is it someone that looks like him?
She eyes TV reflection, and nods a knowing look
She says it doesn't matter, she never liked her looks
I have seen a thousand fractures, I have seen everything
Cause knowing is its own answer, love something in a book
There's not much left to ponder, not much left to cook
As she counted the spiders, as they crawled up inside her
As she counted the spiders, as they crawled up inside her
As she counted the spiders, as they crawled up inside her
As she counted the spiders, as they crawled up inside her
As she counted the spiders, ah-ahh
End on Em7
