The Girl in Black

There's a flame in the desert

at the foot of the hills

And there's a circle in the sand

where the water spills

There's a line up the spine

of the girl in black

And it rips through her dress

at the small of her back

She's been waiting there

to take you through that door

So you can lay her down

on the cavern floor

And you'll see the same flame

burning in her eyes

As you smear your stink

across her inner thighs

You couldn't leave well enough alone

You hold your heart like it's made out of stone

You couldn't leave well enough alone

Alone alone alone

She slithers through the snow

like a snake but she's still

And she come's floating through the window

without touching the sill

She prefers to make an entrance

without using the door

And she'll be standing on your bed

before she crosses the floor

She's a will-of-the-wisp

as she's swinging her hips

Her breath is like a worm

spinning silk from her lips

And tonight spook lights

will be seen from your room

And you and her and Jack

and I are swimming in gloom

You couldn't leave well enough alone

You hold your heart like it's made out of stone

You couldn't leave well enough alone

Alone alone alone
