The Skeletal Circus Derails

We were only dying inside the fire
I raise my eyes to something higher
I cut my teeth upon the wire
We were only dying inside the...
Fire, the skeletal circus derails
Setting sail...
Down the trail, the merry-go-round again
Like you've seen, like you've seen
Like you've seen the end
Going out, I rest my head upon the ground
I lay my palms upon the earth
Night time ballrooms
Fire, the skeletal circus derails
Setting sail...
Down the trail, the merry go-round again
Like you've seen, like you've seen
Like you've seen the end
The end... the end... the end
Ah ah... ah...
Setting sail... ah, ah, ah
Setting sail...
Fire, the skeletal circus derails
Down the trail, the merry-go-round again
Like you've seen, like you've seen
Like you've seen the end

Nice job.

Thanks for keeping it alive! Now we just need more Ghost Movements!

This song rules..and is quite prophetic...

i love this thread. dax has some super great lyrics. he paints morbid, lovely picturs. suits his voice too.

I'm pretty sure it's "We will all die inside the fire"

That said, here's what I get from the Agents of Oblivion version of the lyrics

Goin' Down
I rest my head upon my ground
I lay my bones upon the earth
and that's when I lost you

Down trail
The Skeletal Circus derails
Like I've seen the end
Fire
The Skeletal Circus Derails
setting sail

We will all die inside the fire!

I raise my eyes to something higher
I cut my teeth upon the wire
We will all die inside the

Fire

The Skeletal Circus derails
Setting Sail
Down trail
The Man in the moon
?
(Like I've seen the end)

Yeah!

(solo)

Down trail
The Skeletal Circus again
I can see the end, my friend
Fire
The Skeletal Circus derails
(setting sail)

I've been beside you

An acorn on the forest floor will grow the tree to box your bones
Rollin stones, rollin stones lost

On an otherworldly ocean shore I dreamed I heard the devil's whore
Singin' his song, rollin' the stone law

Acorn on the forest floor will grow the tree to box your bones
Rollin stones, rollin stones raw
Otherworld ocean shore I dreamed I heard the devil's whore
Singin' his song, rollin' the stones raw

Acorn on the forest floor will grow the tree to box your bones

Rollin' the stones! (rollin' the stones!)

Acorn on the forest floor-

Now I must listen to this song.

pm me and I'll get it to you.

I think my favorite recording of this is, the poor quality Daisyhead and the Mooncrickets demo recording.

dax used to write awesome lyrics

seeing as we haven't had an album in almost four years, I'll bet he still does. we just haven't heard it.

I liked his lyrics when he was more cryptic
