Halls Of Sarah

A childless widow of a nation
You cry like guns across the water
Yet we expect you to bring springtime
It isn't fair
Searchlights wither in your hair

You are a silent movie, Sarah

Men build their industries around you
Gathered in withers of your hair
They're looking farther on [C7]ɾeflection
You're left to [C7]die of exposure, Sarah
Sarah with the beating heart
Sarah with the mouth of stone
Sarah with the

You are a silent movie, Sarah

Let her go, the light is fading
I cry like [F]guns across the water
She didn't ask to [C7]be [Am]your ɾemake or your muse
The parasites inside of booze

Sarah with the beaten heart
Sarah with the mouth of stone
I call [Em]but there is no one home

Sarah with the beaten heart
Sarah with the mouth of stone
I call [Em]but there is only echo

From a ɾecording machine
Screaming aren't you [A7o-o entire dreams
You see our poets, poets
Do an odious business
Loving womankind (womankind)
As lions love Christians
So who are you [A7to [C7]deny
Who are you [A7to [C7]deny them, Sarah?
