based on the famous MA mill disaster of 1860.
directly interpolates the chorus of "Suspended in Gaffa" by Kate Bush
lyrics
The 10th day of 1860
Stars in the sky in the shape of an arrow
The sermons sweep in through my brother
The lights never dim and the walls never narrow
I’m trying my best to stay in your orbit
Beams of light all around you
Twisting around the wives and their patterns
The lives and the tatters that boil the sky
[Kate Bush:]
Suddenly my feet are feet of mud
It all goes slow-mo
I don’t know why I’m crying
Am I suspended in gaffa?
Not till I’m ready for you
The 10th day of 1860
Stars in the sky in the shape of a cross
Like a broken arm’s cast iron frame
The 5-story holy and story book lost
I’m trying my best to stay out of the corner
Beams a-light all around you!
Embers in a winter’s sky
The money we made together
300 feet long and 80 feet wide
We can’t stay here forever
[Kate Bush:]
Suddenly my feet are feet of mud
It all goes slow-mo
I don’t know why I’m crying
Am I suspended in gaffa?
Not till I’m ready for you
