Charon's Obol 歌词

At midnight, the dogs gathered around the house Around her house (ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh) Her heart was like a drawer She only opened when she went Out to feed those dogs and let her memories bathe In the moonlight for a while (ooh-ooh-ooh) Those were the dogs owned by the girls Who died in that house (ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh) Meeting every night, keeping vigil in the place (oh) Where their people went away And so she'd wake the rest of her nights in that house Feeding all the hounds at its mouth Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh Oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh On her first night wandering through the dark (ooh-ooh) Of her new house (ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh) Solemn as a bride That's when she first saw them (ooh) Out the kitchen window right at twelve o'clock (ooh) A dozen silent dogs of all different type (ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh) She almost was one of the girls Who died in that house (ooh, ooh, ooh) So when it was stigmatized She took it on to start a new life in that house (ooh, ooh, ooh) Be the token coin in its mouth (ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh) Maybe with enough time tending to that ground (ooh-ooh) She can heal the heart of her house (ooh) Feeding all the hounds at its mouth (ooh)
