Lyrics:
Darkness of the covers.
I see you, oh Valentine.
At the diner Texas Tavern,
she wore her apron backwards everytime.

All my friends are living in my head now.
They’re not all that kind.
Darkness of the covers.
When she came home, I said I loved her.

Have your way. Have your way.

Sleeping in a dollhouse,
so of course I’m feeling small.
A couple vampires looking strung out.
Halloween and homemade alcohol.

Josie’s hair paints colors of the prairie
when the sunlight falls.
It’s the darkness of the covers.
A scarecrow where Josie can’t go.

Have your way. Have your way.

In the dark it’s getting colder.
Josie’s hands are prone to shake.
And I loved you getting older,
but I know you couldn’t stay.
Every cemetery is a motel
for the ones we couldn’t save.
In the light there’s a canary,
but she cannot fly away.
In the light there’s a canary,
but she cannot fly away.
