Headstone
(Music & lyrics- Marina Elderton

Cordon your headstone from me
Cordon your headstone from me
I'm blind to Death's advances
Shaking the faith of St. Francis
Cordon your headstone from me
And mask the things that I've seen
I'm wise to Death's advances
Faith is my weapon of fancy
Clothed in silver
So attentive
He moves over
Like some holy stranger
Spitting out such confidence
You're a danger
Taken to your rhythms
And backwards glances
Such a man
Weaving language
To orchestrate grave plans
So women hide yourselves!
Women hide yourselves!
It's a long, long way to fall
It's a long, long way to fall
You should be running
Your white face
Fists were beating
Fists were beating
Your wise words
Taken from me
Taken from me
And your love
Was so fleeting
Taken from me
And my fists were beating
Animal curse
And I'm now some other person
Who doesn't know the reason
Or have answers
But we should be running
We should be running
It's a long, long way to fall
It's a long, long way to fall
It's a long, long way to fall
It's a long, long way to fall
