She's Like an Owl in the Exorcism Hotel

 


She's Like an Owl in the Exorcism Hotel

I saw my cat looking spooked, and the way she looked reminded me of an owl, cuz her eyes were all big. Then I drifted off to sleep and the hook o' this song came to me. Given the weird dream-like-ness of the lyrics, it took some doin' to figure out what the rest o' this song was about. It turned out to be about a person in a creepy-ass place, who sees bad things a-comin'. But nobody really pays attention to her, cuz they're all oblivious. It's sorta a Cassandra-themed song.

The lyrics are:

She's like an owl in the exorcism hotel

This place is stealing her thoughts away
She's got a feeling that she should not stay

She's like an owl in the exorcism hotel

She sees much better than the average bear
Those visions mess with her, sticking to her hair

She's the only one, who has good night vision
She is lonely when people do not listen
When she sez that things are fucked up around this place
And she wishes that she had not come through those gates
But no one else sees what she sees
And her own self feels like it bleeds
Every time they don't listen up
To her visions of what's coming up

Her eyes are open, wider than the moon
She knows what's coming, it will be here soon

She's like an owl in the exorcism hotel

Here's the alternative player thingy, in case the one up top isn't to your liking:
