Catacomb Kittens
guitar chords lyrics
1. She spent the night alone with body bruised
And skirts asunder. He found his sister in
The morning, soaking in a puddle. “Let’s run
Away”, she said. “He beats us both incessantly.
I know a place beneath the city where we’ll
Stay forever lost. I’ve seen the waifs emerge
From the underground. They roam the
Catacombs and everywhere underneath. We
Could live secretly, away from society!”
2. Away after sunset, they tumbled through the
Darkened city, searching for cold grates with
Bars agape like twisted teeth and jawbones
Pulled wide and cracking. Wet and talking
Wind forbade them! ”Just shut your ears”, she
Said. “Orphans are surrounded by these
Pulled wide and cracking. Wet and talking
Wind forbade them! ”Just shut your ears”, she
Said. “Orphans are surrounded by these
Things. Hold my hand, I’ll lead you below!
We’ll find an alcove and no one will know
About us! We will live secretly, away from society!”
3. They wet their tiny kitten paws on rotting rocks and
Water. They skinned their whiskers digging deep
Where darkness settles into corners and tooth
Marks, sightless eyes and sunken ceilings. Sentient
Depths awake and noticed them; they started
Screaming. “Let’s hurry back”, she said, “before
We are swallowed! Run now, my darling child!
I’ll be sure to follow closely! We must hide
Desperately, away from monstrosities!”
4. “My hope is dissolved”, she sobbed. “It’s coming
This way! I shall belay it chase so that you many
Flee these tunnels!” But he stood stolidly, and
Held her hand loyally.
Next week, next year, there is a somebody who
Hears their feet underneath… they stop and
Tilt and frown. They hear them drowning- no, the
Wind singing just below the street…
“You’re here with me… it’s just we two. So if you’ve
Died, why then I have, too…”
