Organ Donor (Messersmith Jeremy)

I was born in a mortuary Full of worry Ice water in my veins Gave my heart in the school library Never knew her name Lost my tongue in the sanctuary “Heaven spare me!” Hands raised above my head Sent my brain to the seminary Never seen again Swing low Grey bones I don’t know If I’ll ever be whole again Left my spine in the wedding chapel Full of people Feet turning into lead Lost a leg at the iron foundry Where they found me dead Drained my blood at the mortuary No more worry Ice water in my veins Took my bones to the cemetery Where they still remain Swing low Grey bones I don’t know If I’ll ever be whole again
