Locked in a room With the book and a rope The hollow men close in Justice begins at home Her name is known Her name is known Cut her up, cut her out
Find me the captain Tell him i want to know Just who is steering and who?s merely holding on And when the next wave is the last wave I?ll drag him downwards
Then she dances Skirt swaying in the half-light She dances White blossom in the black sky I need new clothes, she thinks New skin, a mind I can bear
At seventeen I heard my calling To suffocate with my embrace Murder ten to save a hundred Drown the whole world in my faith From a long line I descended
Song among the pine Cones and needles lie atop the dark soil They will come for me With searchlights streaming through the cedar trees Cold ash smother
