IS THAT A BODY IN THE WOODS


from the ABC set Song Collection

Is that a body in the woods
or is that my best friend

Is that a body in the woods
or is that my best friend
Is this an endless story or is this a tragic end

We think we know which way to go
but, lines aint straight , nowhere no, no

Is that a body in the woods
or is that my best friend

When lightnin streaks the sky at night
and sailors die at sea from fright
Thats when I think I know the game
it all ends upside-down the same

From broken rhymes
we ride the train to hell and back
From broken rhymes
we ride the train to hell and back
From broken lines we came

Is that a body in the woods
or is that my best friend
Is this an endless story
or is this a tragic end

The mirrors cracked,
the game is stacked against her
and she weakens by the hour
her song turns sweet to saur
and her pain turns in upon itself
thru spirals ever inwards,
Oh, thru spirals ever inwards,
Theres no way out, theres no release
reflections shrink into a piece of nothing

Is that a body in the woods
or is that my best friend
Is this an endless story
or is this a tragic end

A thought becomes a child,
The spirit is to wild
to fit inside the cage we wear or not,
to fit inside the cage we wear or not,
or not,or not,or not,or not,
to fit inside the cage we wear or not,

And so we stagger past the rainbows
and we don“t live out our lives
and far beyond the setting sun
the puppets drop, shot from a gun

Is that a body in the woods
or is that my best friend
Is that a body in the woods
or is that my best friend
