Only The Stones Remain

The Soft Boys

Men were executed, women bled
Meat and fish changed hands and children stayed up late
Uh, huh
Colored drums they displace the night
There's a taxidermist looking for a fight
But now he's gone, oh yeah
Only the stones remain
Girls were decked with flowers and violated while
Boys spat juice from a, out of their fresh young bones
Soldiers crossed their hearts and died, pretty girls turned cold inside
But now they're gone, oh yeah
Only the stones remain
Oh they're gone, yeah
Only the stones remain

And the stones have forgotten them
The stones have forgotten them

They brake your body and drain the life out of it
It sinks into the soil while the soul flies up into the air above
And when there's no more tears to cry
There's nothing left to do but laugh
State led collaborations collapse and cannabis evaporates, honey
Only the stones remain
(Here they go)
Oh yeah, only the stones remain
Woah

Now they're gone, oh yeah
Only the stones remain
Oh yeah, only the stones remain
