Lyrics
Singing to the hillside
Falls on leaves' deaf ears
Dreams tinted crimson
The color of my fears
Pink sparkling seraphim
Pawned their guitars
Cherubs are passed out
On the floors of downtown bars
Tell me are you weary
Tell me are you scared
Can you taste the hemlock
Floating in the air
Tell me are you weary
Tell me are you scared
Choking on the hemlock
Thickening the air
We woke this morning
To grass without dew
Even in the daylight
Sky's black instead of blue
Bobolinks wail like banshees
As bats fight with birds
She called to the sunflowers
Only a dying orchid heard
Tell me are you weary
Tell me are you scared
Can you taste the hemlock
Floating in the air
Debutantes in the hills
With Joshua tree chandeliers
Weekly motel dwellers
With thrift store ateliers
Tell me are you weary
Are you alone
Can you hear the devil
Breathing on the phone
Tell me are you weary
Tell me are you scared
Choking on the hemlock
