lyrics

Mysteries Of Saint Louis, Part One - inspired by the life and writing of Henry Boernstein

Boernstein is a ghost calling from the past
of blue and gray uniforms
arsenals lost and won
unions formed and broken

Boernstein is a ghost calling from the past
a memory put on a shelf
shut in a cabinet and locked
in the library at night

Boernstein is a name misspelled on a grave
the sun rises over Bloody Island
stormy nights along the river
nobody on the banks
looking to the Illinois side

Boernstein is a ghost calling from the past
sees the people eating fast
sees the people working slow
sees everything looking like it's all upside down
