Written by Damien Youth

lyrics

Holly wont you leave a light in your window, to carry this pauper home
A beacon for a soul you cannot remember, who wanders the freezing cold
Half lit in shadow walk, dust blown through city park
to siren songs
Swallowed in shadow play, lost in a book of days
well read & torn

Holly don't you ever want to go over, the field where we used to meet
It's frozen in the bellowing of October, through hum of the city streets
I ride past the abstract lawns, the streetcars, the Audubon, the window stains.
Reflection stares broken glass, boys eyes in monster's mask who's spirit fades

Darling won't you leave a light in your window, for lost boy in wonder glow
Stranded on the street & staring above fences, your warm silhouette in flow
Oh Fairy of barker street, the witch masks of Halloween bring winter's spell
Way up above it all, safe in your window warm
you carousel.
