lyrics

KOSKY’S SONG

Her heart is made out of cotton
I know it well
It’s white with lambs wool at the bottom
I live there as well

He walked right in and put his feet up
His boots were muddy from before
They both pretended not to notice
The trail leading to the door

Oh! Oh!

His heart is made out of leather
With metal parts and wooden beams
His life to me was pieced together
From bits of cut up magazines

He was a very savvy sailor
With all his clever knots and lines
He was a father and provider
She didn’t want to know it at the time

Oh! Oh!

They went to bed and drew the curtain
On the things they could postpone
and grinned like fools who think the darkness
Is all you need to be alone

But all the while a silent figure
Was waiting in the wings
With a finger on the trigger
And all the things the daylight brings

The walls are thin so keep it quiet
The very threshold seems to sigh it
They’re playing Koskys’ song outside
And you couldn’t stop them if you tried

Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh!
