Darling They've Found The Body (a song)

darling they've found the body curled up among the leaves echoing the quiet decay savoring the dying day darling they've found the body crying under the porch choking on the insects still she swallows more pull out the nails unwrap the barbed wire cut the noose pull out the nails unwrap the barbed wire cut the noose darling they've found the body on you're side on the bed shes wearing white sheets there are no eyes in her head darling they've found the body sitting in your place talking with your voice wearing half your face pull out the nails unwrap the barbed wire cut the noose pull out the nails unwrap the barbed wire cut the noose darling they've found the body her hands are around your throat settling into indents she put there long ago darling they've found the body they dig her up wherever we go
