lyrics

Just outside the edge of night
And just outside the motion lights
Rows of one-way windows mirror back on those inside
And remind us of the lives we left behind

I can feel the changing tides
And I can feel your hand in mine
Carnivores and murder tours still stalk Cielo Drive
The faults on which Los Angeles resides

We know where the end begins
And we know where your husband’s been
Dexedrine prescriptions keep us vigilant and thin
All high and trembling tight like mandolins

Strangers stalk these streets at night
Half-remembered, half-alive
We drift inconspicuous, we dress like idle wives
A mental list of painless ways to die

But in this godless world of yours
The simple thoughts you can't afford
Like what if all those miracles meant more than metaphor?
And what if there’s no difference anymore?

These presages of things to come
That health and wealth protect you from
But there may come a time, one day, when stage blood’s not enough
Try not to hurt the ones we used to love
