CEAFEmF
He who was your bull
GF
and made the shadows run
C
And I understand
FC
in all things he was quite the man
FC
but now perched on his skull
FC
he wears cuckolds horns
FC
they're growing full
FC
pushing through the soil
EmF
pools gathering round my knees
GF
temptation leers at me from every door
FC
so these are his bones
EmFC
why won't you leave them alone?
EmF
worms crowding her feet
GF
trying to pull me back to their holes
EmF
tap-tapping in the room below
GF
nothing more than dead piles of bones
saying:
