The Virgin Jerry - Concrete Bridges

The Harlequin figures shuffle in
Mistaking their shadows for their skin
Never lived to follow
Sorrow guilt or sin
And all their lives confined
To the things they leave behind
And it just goes on and on

Lechery never had a face like this
Smirking at the scenery of the grift
Can't take all the sweetness
Drowning in the pith
Your ghost is coming fast
Your memory just won't last
And it just goes on and on

Only paper horses believe in bludgeons been unsaid
Fading concrete bridges between the sleeping and the dead

A million dances for the rain
Quench to the bone but escape from the vain
Measuring out in ounces
Just know that they're still sane
They stuttered out their prime
But it all will die in time
And it's only on and on

Only paper horses believe in bludgeons been unsaid
Fading concrete bridges between the sleeping and the dead

Only paper horses believe in bludgeons been unsaid
Fading concrete bridges between the sleeping and the dead
