The ground shakes
But really it’s me that’s quaking
The island breaks
The heart is aching
The island states
Left and right palpitating
The heart that shakes
Is the life it’s taking
Scraping scratching
Love everlasting fake!
Scraping scratching
Feel the nails as they rake
Feel the icy wind
As it blows over the lake
Hear the wails like sails
Filled with all the wind they take
Make it as hard as stone
As hard as fossilized bone
Make him hard as stone
Harder than the oldest catacomb
Hard yet indefinable
Unreadable stone
He’s hard as stone
Unbreakable to the bone
Scraping scratching
His love takes her plunge
Scraping scratching
His love expunged
Feel the icy wind
Blow as you take the plunge
Hear the wails fail
As the water fills your lungs
