Behind a curtain of towering pines the sun's settling red
A city hidden high in the hills comes out to honor the dead
Families somberly walk through the town they build alters and pray
Clean the tombs and clutch rosaries and speak of better days
From the edge of the island they ferry back to the shore
They climb under their covers and pray a little more
In this ancient city of stone they sigh and bow their heads
The living seem rather, well...dead
The sun is down the earth shakes the wind doth howl
And I'm making moves all across the park, we're stirring in the dark
The caskets squeak, the trees wheeze, the crypts all creak
And toes sepulchered for months in months in dust
Are wiggling off their , woah
Shed your shrouds, slip your fingertips through the ground
Get those catacombs open I'm hoping you'll join us
Everybody come on out, yeah
What a lovely, lovely night for a drink and a parade
We'll dance until the morning light, this town should be afraid
Candied pumpkins, sweet egg bread, we love rising from the dead
Carpals, tarsals, vertebrae, that's us clicking on parade
I move without any muscles, my skull's a cavernous hall
Tendons are made for pulling my friend, I don't need them at all
Mescal in our mandibles and porridge on our ribs
Their prospects are looking quite grim
Board the mariposas now, set sail for the quivering light ahead
We're descending on the town
The living we're scaring, nightmaring in fright

Note: This is basically the whole song, sans two of the breakdowns. I will update this
soon, but I would hate to risk losing all the work I've put into this, which has
twice.
