BANSHEE

VERSE 1
When you hear
The sound of banshee
That would mean that
You should look away now
Look entirely away.

CHORUS
When you hear the sound
Of a banshee
All it ever could mean
Is for you to turn
The other way
PAUSE
Because you didn't hear
Anything.

BRIDGE
You thought you heard
You imagined you heard
You felt you heard something
You could have sworn you
Heard a banshee
Still, always look away
At all times.

VERSE 2
When you hear the sound
That concerns you not
All you do
Is keep away
Like every other person
Would do.

CHORUS
When you hear the sound
Of a banshee
All it ever could mean
Is for you to turn
The other way
PAUSE
Because you didn't hear
Anything.

BRIDGE
You thought you heard
You imagined you heard
You felt you heard something
You could have sworn you
Heard a banshee
Still, always look away
At all times.

REFRAIN
You will hear the sound
Of the banshee
But you will not
Hear it enough to see it.
PAUSE
Because you may be
Hearing illusive voices
Illusive noises

[When you hear the sound]
[Of a banshee]
[Is for you to turn]
[The other way]
[Because you didn't hear]
[Anything]
[you didn't hear anything]
[anything]
[anything]
[ anything]
[anything]
[anything]
