lyrics

as enchanted treasure turns
to wilted flowers in the sun,
black ribbon wrapped around her neck
was all that kept her head upon
her body and I never knew,
I never knew til she was gone
she was just a wicker girl,
she was just an eidolon...

I thought she gave me her heart,
but it was only a fake
when I got her alone she turned to dust
thought she gave me her heart
I guess I made a mistake
when I got her alone she turned to dust

you can wish on a magical monkey paw
for stupid things you think you want
this corpse a'knockin' at your door
is here because you wanted more
this corpse a'knockin' at my door is here because I wanted more
this corpse a'knockin' at my door is here because I wanted more
(gimmemore)

when the sun came up,
I realized I was in no maiden's bedroom
I was outside and I was alone
embracing only tree roots and spanish moss in the wet grass.
I looked up at the headstone of the silver bed
and read out her name
it was a grave, and I was in a graveyard

Thought she gave me her heart,
but it was only a fake
when I got her alone she turned to dust
thought she gave me her heart
I guess I made a mistake
when I got her alone she turned to dust
