Over Her Shoulder

Lyrics

[Chorus 1] She was looking over her shoulder I'll always wonder why After all the things that I told her About the killing sky [Verse 1] Pillar of strength, salt of the earth Framed in the city lights of hell She took a mirror from her purse And froze there in the fire that fell [Chorus 2] Scorched-earth fingers tap on my shoulder She's my fatal wound She floats above a world that can't hold her Now she's a blood-red moon [Piano Solo] [Verse 2] Flesh of my flesh, dust of my dust Held in a swoon of swift desire I could not wake her from the lust And everything that fed the fire [Chorus 3] And now I'm looking over my shoulder I don't know why After all the things that I told her About the killing sky
