Ghosts in My Heart - Mariee Sioux

(dancing in the dark

In my sleep)

We’re counting in the dark in our sleep

You told me graves are shaped like hives of sunbeams

Counting in the dark in our sleep

You told me graves are shaped like hives of sunbeams

And a hammer’s to my head and you’re starving yourself

And a hammer’s to my head and you’re starving yourself

But little kids' mommas have your name in their mouths

And little kids' mommas have your name in their mouths

And oh, even my momma’s got your name in her mouth

In her mouth, in her mouth

In her mouth, in her mouth

In her mouth, in her mouth

We’re dancing in the dark in our sleep

Hallelujahs, hiding and seeks

We’re dancing in the dark in our sleep

With hallelujahs, hiding and seeks

And a hammer’s to our heads and we’re starving ourselves

A hammer’s to our heads and we’re starving ourselves

And little kids' mommas have your name in their mouths

And little kids' mommas have your name in their mouths

And oh, even my momma’s got your name in her mouth

In her mouth, in her mouth

In her mouth, in her mouth

In her mouth, in her mouth

And the ghosts in this down, they can walk the walk

But every kid in this town can talk the talk

The ghost in this town, they are holding their breaths

But the ghosts in my heart, they can’t get no rest

No rest, no rest, no rest

No rest, no rest

We’re counting in the dark in our sleep

You told me graves are shaped like hives of sunbeams

A hammer’s to my head and you’re starving yourself

And a hammer’s to my head and you’re starving yourself

And dancing in the dark in our sleep

Hallelujahs, hiding and seeks

And a hammer’s to our heads and we’re starving ourselves

A hammer’s to our heads and we’re starving ourselves

Little kids' mommas have your name in their mouths

Well, little kids' mommas have your name in their mouths

And oh, even my momma’s got your name in her mouth

And my momma’s got your eyes in her mouth

And my momma’s got her eyes in your mouth

And my momma has her eyes in your mouth

And my momma’s got your eyes in her mouth

In her mouth, in her mouth, in her mouth

In her mouth, in her mouth

And the ghosts in this down, they can walk the walk

Every kid in this town can talk the talk

The ghost in this town, they are holding their breaths

But the ghosts in my heart, they can’t get no rest

No rest, no rest

And the ghosts in my heart

They can’t get no rest
