Amelia's Last
by Over The Rhine

Album: The Darkest Night of the Year

these are the (whose are the?)
these are the raw materials
you and me
these are the (whose are the?)
these are the angels' inferiors
who
someone breathed this breath in us
"oh amelia, we've so far to go
oh amelia"

these are the (whose are the?)
these are the ordinary clothes
you and me
around extraordinary flesh and pulsing madness deep and close
who
someone breathed this breath in us
"oh amelia maybe we're not that far
oh amelia is this who we really are
my amelia"
