Exit Wound Lyrics by Jackie Leven

Creatures of Light & Darkness

2001

(deserted villages
Deserted villages
Deserted villages
Deserted villages)

[Intro]/[Outro]
"If you could look inside my heart
You'd see a body without a soul"
Deserted villages - forget-me-nots
Blowing in the cold
"If you could look inside my heart
You'd see a body without a soul"
Deserted villages - forget-me-nots
Blowing in the cold

[Verse 1]
It was the time of spring and song
The lilac had already been and gone
I had just returned from walking
By the sounding sea
I came back from the hotel
Where you turned and said to me

[Bridge]
[Deborah Greenwood vocals]
"White bars of heaven keep me from you
I know you're living in hell, but what can I do?"
(She said)
[Leven & Greenwood]
"White bars of heaven keep me from you
I know you're living in hell, but what can I do?"

[Chorus]
I stood under the shattered star
And watched the drunks fall by
With every stumble that I saw
A picture cleared in my mind's eye

I see you walk away with your heels
Sparking on the ground
And though I lie alone
I feel your fingers deep inside
My exit wound

[Verse 2]
Now I have been on your side so strong
Though something in your kiss was all wrong
And now you say there's something
Something wrong inside my mind
You're gonna let me go
I hear you whisper from behind

[Bridge]

[Chorus]

[Outro]
