And he played in the dark
To solace his ache
While down in the kitchen they left hurt in their wake
Going to war like dogs in a cage
It was impossible to drown out their bark.
Bow grinded hard against feline entrails
He canines were bared in a crucified grin
And the hunters below would soon pad up the stairs to earn themselves a new skin
And the howl of his strings damned the full moon
But anger is what pain entails.
Darling don't sit-and-stay while your world rips apart
Love a little louder
And deafen your heart
Play boy, play
Through the rage and decay
Your snarling fiddle will scare them away
Pray boy, pray
With a lupin's bay
Or you hide will be hung and your lungs aflay
Scream boy, scream
To pierce this dream
To keep things as they are, and seem
Darling don't sit-and-stay while your world rips apart
Love a little louder
And deafen your heart
