Lyrics The Sky Is A Poisonous Garden - Concrete Blonde

The Sky Is A Poisonous Garden

The stars above shine down below
The fever you hold on this night
Deathly cold
I can feel from this side of the door
I can feel eleanor
He said, sun dont rise…
He said sun dont shine
He said dont bring tomorrow
To justify tonight
The moon is full — the stars are bright
And the sky is a poisonous garden
Tonight.
Sip your tequila.
give me some time
To unlearn all Ive learned for the
Spring to unwind
And then came your sweet gentle mouth
I began to move mine.
They knew with the dawn —
They knew with the day
They knew what they had
Would be yound naked prey
And attacked from all sides
By a world filled with
Poison and hate
Eleanor trembles, eleanor moans.
Somehow, this body is someone
She always has known
She cries tears on his chest
O so silent and slow —
She said please dont do.
please dont go —
And she cried and she died in his arms
And he cried nevermore
The moon is full, the stars are bright
And the sky is a poisonous garden
Tonight.
