ESO - Brand New Suit

There's a girl with a ghost surreptitiously sewn into the seam of her dress
And it's been causing distress
This apparition smells like death

Though the boys stop and stare, they're instinctively aware of her aura
They detest and adore her
Though none could find the courage to say, "How do?"

And she wants to whole world to love her
The perfect dress from a tailor in Hell would serve her best

There's a boy across the town with a terrible hound in the basement
With a facial replacement
Because one day that dreaded dog got out
Now he lives on his own, an agoraphobic in his home, he's a martyr
Though he longs for an answer
He reads old books, he is a voyeur, he watches the world go by

And he only wants to be normal
He wrote a note to himself and he burned it and he tried to forget

Now if the boys had their way, she'd be deflowered in a day, so they chase her
They don't know why, but they hate her
She runs downstairs to the basement of a big old house

She hears a sound in the darkness
And so she knows she's not alone, there's something waiting inside

As the boy descends the stairs, he is nervous and ensnared by the silence
His senses scream violence
In the gloom there's a ghost of a girl, what else could it be?
As he backs to the door, feet scraping on the floor, he is shaking
Inside he is aching
To run, but instead he is reaching out for the light

It floods the room and it's blinding
His eyes readjust and he sees he's alone in the room
And he's left with a brand new suit
