The fragile keep secrets gathered in pockets
G
And they will sell them for nothing a cheap watch or locket
Em Cm
That kind of gold washes off
Cm
And the sad act like lepers they stick to the shadows
G
They long to ring bells of warning to tell of their coming
Em Cm
So that the pure can shut their doors
Cm
And the angry are animals senseless and savage
G
They act without order in logical lapses
Em Cm
They stain their mouths with blood
Fm Cm
So take my hand this barren land is alive tonight
Fm Cm
Oh the corn has grown stalks that form a wall to hide
Fm Cm
The wind carries sounds that I can't see from beyond that line
B Am G
Then the stalks begin to sway
C B Am G
Oh stay with me Arienette
Cm
Until the wolves are away

Well the wicked are vultures they bake in the canyons
G
They circle in sunlight and wait for their victims
Em Cm
To collapse and call to them
Cm
And the desperate are water they'll run down forever
G
As they soak into silence and end up together
Em Cm
In a dark and distant dark and distant place
Fm Cm
So don't leave me here with only mirrors watching me
Fm Cm
This house it holds nothing but the memories
Fm Cm
And the moon it leaves silver but never sleep
B Am G
And then the silver turns to gray
C B Am G
So stay with me Arienette
Cm
Until the wolves are away
