Chinese Bones Lyrics

Chinese Bones lyrics

Watching Romeo dissolve I was tempted to join him
by the mirror of the lake
where the statues unfurled
I had never seen a man so abuse his
reflection
as the light shines through your Chinese bones
watching Juliet
unrobe I would hasten toward her
but around her feet I sat that her serpent
was curled
and her eyeballs had rolled up so her pupils had vanished
and
the light shines through your Chinese bones
as the light shines through your
Chinese bones

I met an interesting dwarf and I told him a story
as he
walked towards the East then the shadow was right
something Shakespeare
never said was 'you've got to be kidding'
as the light shines through your
Chinese bones
as the light shines through your Chinese bones
the line
between us is so thin I might as well be you
and everywhere I've ever been I
know you're going to
Chinese bones Chinese Bones
