Marie can see a Banshee on still water, In the backyard of her house beside her two and her Daughter. her ballad in the winter mornings cold, Who will make their exit? Who will not grow
Hold breath when you hear the Banshee cry, it runs in your blood, someones about to die. Blindfold the innocent, they dont to see, Or the deathly cry of the deadly Banshee.
Young Taylor is a Virgin, as as a rose, In with a Pilot whose name is Roger Jones. She still says childish words, still just a girl, Growing up by force into this world.
Young John is to winning first prize, At everything he enters, gold in his eyes. He loves to steal the show, he goes, And yet there is so much he still know.
Hold your breath when you hear the cry, When it runs in your blood, someones to die. Blindfold the innocent, they dont to see, Or hear the cry of the deadly Banshee.
Young is in the middle, between John and Taylor, When hes not playing chess he dreams of a Sailor. He wants to belong like his brother John, But life has other for him to meet head-on.
Stung into action, Marie to run, She exploded in a frenzy, the shotgun, they saw her coming, the kids began to scream, As Marie aim, fired at the Banshee.
Hold your breath the Banshee starts to cry, it runs in your blood, someones about to die. Blindfold the innocent, they want to see, Or hear the deathly cry of the Banshee.
End In their family picture, theyre happily, Taylor, John and Charles, but now no Marie..
