Poltergeist Lyrics by Anthony Ruptak

A Place That Never Changes

0

There's a red cattle gate leading oddly to nowhere
Far up in the black mountain woods
I took a branch from the ground and I waved it around
Pretending that it was my gun
And the crows circled 'round in the canopy
Warning of the threats that the little boy posed
And my grandfather smiled, and we became as wild as the lodgepole that anxiously moaned
For, to us, it was beautiful
Ardent and spiritual
Oh, Lord, we used to be friends, I remember it well
And the fear of thе elements
Was quick to bе put to bed
Oh, Lord, we used to be friends, I remember it well
Now, I'm drunk and I'm stoned
In the same little home that we shared when the world looked so good
And now the scenery's changed, with my faith and my name
It's been hard getting back to woods
And as the campfire glows, you will notice that only in death does the tree bare its soul
I guess nobody knows where the poltergeist goes
I believe it just does what it's told
For, to us, it was beautiful
Rigor and ritual
All good things come to an end, I will see you in Hell
And the fear of the elements, oh
Was liquor upon the lips
Oh, Lord, we used to be friends, I will see you in Hell
And it's holding me down
This browned blood that I carry around
And I hope that you found a good plot for (?) to lay yourself down
Down, down
Your body an ant in the magnified sun
There stood a child holding a gun
Your body an ant in the magnified sun
There stood a child holding a gun
Your body an ant in the magnified sun
There stood a child holding a gun, oh
Your body an ant in the magnified sun
There stood a child holding a gun, oh!
(Indistinct Vocalizations)
