The ghost who walks she's on the prowl, for the man she loved, he cut her down. It was an ordinary night in June when he drove her to the lake so they could watch the full moon. The ghost who walks she's on the prowl, for the man she loved, he laid her down and in the tall grass he kissed her cheek and with a knife in his hand he plunged it deep She looked at him with pleading eyes he softly spoke: ""my dear the love has died"" and then he muffled her desperate cries under the moonlight. the ghost who walks she's on the prowl, wanders in the moonlight, she's crying to herself cause his eyes never once looked cruel but the moon in the blade shimmered like a jewel She looked at him with pleading eyes he softly spoke: ""my dear the love has died"" and then he muffled her deadly cries under the moonlight. Under the moonlight. Under the moonlight.
The truth is in the dirt on the ground The truth is in the dirt on the ground Not in your gilded cage with your rusted spoon When the ground splits open it will swallow you
The truth is in the dirt on the ground The truth is in the dirt on the ground Not in your poison tongue or your acid tears Let the truth howl in your ears
Here she comes, it's killing time Flames are burning behind her eyes Here she comes, it's killing time Flames are burning behind her eyes
The truth is in the dirt on the ground The truth is in the dirt on the ground Not in your claws, drawn-out scratch 'til it bleeds knocked down dead gets what she needs
The truth is in the dirt on the ground The truth is in the dirt on the ground not on the blazing horse from the midnight sun the fire will turn your bones to dust
here she comes, it's killing time flames are burning behind her eyes here she comes, it's killing time flames are burning behind her eyes
The truth is in the dirt on the ground The truth is in the dirt on the ground not in your gilded cage with your rusted spoon when the ground splits open it will swallow you
got me hanging on a string, honey got me hanging for dear life mama told me not to be so bold and I've been heavy crossed
I fell head first into the fire what a foolish thing to do gambled every bit of sense I had and I losted it all to you
all to you you take my breath my last request is that you will always love me the best so all your pretty babies can have the last laugh I get Still I'm hanging on a string, honey Still I'm hanging on a string
oohh ooh la la la oooh ooh la la la
out on the streets the bells are ringing I said I'm sorry, lonesome June I watched the faces as they pass me by I'm hoping that I see you
I called your phone, it's disconnected it has somehow no longer stems guess the evil came and took you back and my life is in his hands
all to you you take my breath my last request is that you will always love me the best so all your pretty babies can have the last laugh I get Still I'm hanging on a string, honey Still I'm hanging on a string
(Thanks to Kurtny for these lyrics) got me hanging on a string, honey got me hanging for dear life mama told me not to be so bold and I've been heavy crossed
I fell head first into the fire what a foolish thing to do gambled every bit of sense I had and I losted it all to you
all to you you take my breath my last request is that you will always love me the best so all your pretty babies can have the last laugh I get Still I'm hanging on a string, honey Still I'm hanging on a string
oohh ooh la la la oooh ooh la la la
out on the streets the bells are ringing I said I'm sorry, lonesome June I watched the faces as they pass me by I'm hoping that I see you
I called your phone, it's disconnected it has somehow no longer stems guess the evil came and took you back and my life is in his hands
all to you you take my breath my last request is that you will always love me the best so all your pretty babies can have the last laugh I get Still I'm hanging on a string, honey Still I'm hanging on a string
Mid beautiful flowers, bright fields and clear streams We pass precious hours of summer and dreams The birds' gentle twitter, the frog's silver peep All seem to have faded, while we were asleep The song we're now hearing is mournful and strange As the sun starts to set and the leaves start to change From the hill over yonder we hear the bulls cry As the leaves start to fall and the moon starts to rise Oh the bulls all howl at the moon, it is full and hung over the hill The autumn leaves will all be falling soon and then winter will come in for the kill But there are still green trees and one last round for the bees Before we all freeze over for a spell So let us treasure these moments together As we sing along so long and fare thee well For tonight is the last night of summer my love Of the summer of love Of the summer my love For tonight is the last night of summer my love Of the summer of love Of the summer my love The beautiful flowers will all fade away The streams will all freeze and the fields turn to gray The frogs all will slumber, the birds will take flight And winter's cold wonder will bid us goodnight
Hear this song my love, let it be the thorn that pierces through the rose the past doesn't forgive a trouble for tomorrow sinks in its sorrow... A hundred years from now, dear We shall not care at all It will not matter then, dear the honey you've all the song we sang together, dear it will not mean no more they're words upon a page, dear these days of sorrow and row A 100 years from now, my dear we shall not care at all for it will not matter then, my dear if we've ever loved at all and the lonesome songs we sang together were the words upon a page the meaning of them long forgotten a 100 years from now a 100 years from now, dear we shall not care at all it will not matter then, dear the honey you the song we sang together dear it will not mean no more words upon a page dear them words upon a page dear these days of sorrow and row
There once was a time when I was a girl that darkness hunged in my sky I was old before I learned to be young Just don't call till I learn how to cry
and the weeds in the ground have grow up through my skin it's taking a lonesome girl's heart I will go where the stolen roses grow to forget that I have fell apart
the thorns on the roses cut through my skin the vultures flew down and then parted what lay on the surface was a tiny crack and below was a gigantic wreck so I held my head down and I dealt with the blows In hope that I'd soon be free to go where the stolen roses grow to forget I have bad memory
I will go where the stolen roses grow I will go where the stolen roses grow and the weeds in the ground have grow up through my skin It's taking a lonesome girl's heart I will go where the stolen roses grow to forget that I have fell apart
I will go where the stolen roses grow I will go where the stolen roses grow I will go where the stolen roses grow
It's been a cruel summer The sun has been hit by the storms My darling was bewitched by another Her black magic tricks stole his heart I saw her screaming as she twirled her hair So long and black like the storms She caught my darling's eye and as quickly as the lightning I muttered a lonesome goodbye It's been a cruel summer The kind that makes grown men turn pale My darling was bewitched by another I could not compete with black head I saw her standing as she twirled her hair So long and black like the storms She caught my darling's eye and as quickly as the lightning I muttered a lonesome goodbye She caught my darling's eye and as quickly as the lightning I muttered a lonesome goodbye
I went down to the garden saw the trees and the sky are grey you were there crying for you knew that the seasons are changed Once we danced to the moonlight shared a kiss to the rising sun everything was dying fleeting moments lost under the gun and you asked me: ""why does love fade into darkness?"" cause we cannot change, we cannot change I went down to the garden Saw the trees and the sky are grey you were there crying understood that the seasons are changed screamed out to the thunder hailed our hands up towards the night what did we fall under? now the candles don't burn so bright and you asked me: ""why does love fade into darkness?"" cause we cannot change and you asked me: ""why does love fade into darkness?"" cause we cannot change, we cannot change I went down to the garden saw the trees and the sky are grey you were the crying for you knew that the seasons are changed
the birds they circle in the sky Oh the birds they circle in the sky the birds the circle in the sky for all the blood red tears I cried Oh, the birds they circle in the sky
see the man as he rushes towards the sun see the man as he rushes towards the sun the man as he rushes towards the sun straight into the arms of another one see the man as he rushes towards the sun
But I hold a secret in my bones Oh but I hold a secret in my bones what's that secret in my bones? I carried it down to the dirt below for I know the secret in my bones
The birds they circle in the sky Oh the birds they circle in the sky the birds the circle in the sky for all the blood red tears I cried Oh, the birds they circle in the sky

The field's a desert, Not a place to sow a seed. The dust has settled, And the rich man ignored our pleas. What once was a bountiful place, To lay down the plough, Is just a no man's land, Howling in the dust now. Why are the men in suits still able to cheat and bleed, While I'm still tending this land, Trying to scrounge a dime for a mouth to feed? And the dust has come and choked up my land, And covered with tumbleweeds. The only rain that falls on this land are, The tears that fall from me. The tears that fall from me. The tears that fall from me. Woo woo, woo woo, Woo, woo, woo. Why are the men in suits still able to cheat and bleed, While I'm still tending this land, Trying to scrounge a dime for a mouth to feed? And the dust has come and choked up my land, And covered with tumbleweeds. The only rain that falls on this land are, The tears, Are the tears, Are the tears, Are the tears,
