lyrics

All the wounded animals
have fled into the undergrowth
into the night
down the basement stairs.

Running from the family
to a hiding place
running from those they'd run with
if they had the strength.

Down in the basement
eyes like broken glass
reflecting back the torchlight
wild and bright with fear.

Hands cupped around the fire
burning in the flesh
guarding like an heirloom
the naked bloody mess.

All the wounded animals
one for every shadow.
