freakwater - scratches on the door lyrics
[verse 1]
it was the night before christmas and all through the house
the smoke and the cinders, the screaming and shouts
the children were huddled asleep on the floor
no stockings or presents or toys any more
the firemen beat down the blackened door
six children spread out across the floor
they never saw the scratches on the door
[verse 2]
then came a man from the lg&e
he showed the crowd the tears on his cheek
he brought some gifts in case one had survived
he came to see just what could be denied
but he never saw the children on the floor
and he never saw the scratches on the door
[verse 3]
tv news team cried a million tears
they said the oldest one was just eleven years
they showed the fire burning up in the sky
they showed the father, policemen at his side
but not the handcuffs that the father wore
and not the scratches left upon the door
[verse 4]
it was the night before christmas and all through the house
not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse
the children were lying asleep in the ground
the children were silent, asleep in the ground
the children were silent, asleep in the ground
