Skulls - Ryan Adams

Somewhere in the wasteland

Across the prison

On the ocean, I watch his face

Like you’re on lockdown

Someone sound the alarm

I can hear you breathing

I can see a scowl

A hairless shadow

On the oak

Someplace

splintered and corrupt

I press my face

My nose, my mouth

Into the wild shadows

Of roses and flowers

Like you’re on lockdown

Someone sound the alarm

I can hear you breathing

I can see your scowl

Your scowl
