Dinu Lipatti's Bones - The Mountain Goats

We stank of hair dye and ammonia

We sealed ourselves away from view

You were looking at the void and sat unblinking

The best that I could do was to train my eyes on you

We scaled the hidden hills beneath the surface

Scraped our fingers bloody on the stones

And built our little house that we could live in

Out of dinu lapatti's bones

We kept our friends at bay all summer long

Treated the days as if they'd kill us if they could

Ringing out the hours like blood drenched bed sheets

To keep winter time at bay but december showed up anyway

There was no money it was money that you wanted

I went downtown sold off most of what I owned

And we raised a tower to broadcast all our dark dreams

From dinu lapatti's bones
