The fragile keep secrets
Gathered in pockets
And they'll sell them for nothing
A cheap watch or locket
That kind of gold washes off

And the sad act like lepers
They stick to the shadows
They long to ring bells of warning
To tell of their coming
So that the pure can shut their doors

And the angry are animals senseless and savage
They act without order in logical lapses
They stain their mouths with blood

So take my hand
This barren land is alive tonight
And the corn has grown
Stalks that form a wall to hide
But the wind carries sounds
That I can't see from beyond that line
Then the stalks begin to sway
Oh, stay with me Arienette
Until the wolves are away

Well, the wicked are vultures
And they bake in the canyons
They circle in sunlight
And wait for their victims
To collapse and call to them

And the desperate are water
They'll run down forever as they soak into silence,
And end up together in a dark and distant
Dark and distant place

So don't leave me here
With only mirrors watching me
This house it holds nothing but the memories
And the moon it leaves silver but never sleep
And then the silver turns to gray
Oh, stay with me Arienette
Until the wolves are away.
