Lyrics
The Red Veil rose Through quarry dust And swallowed every shout Ezra Bell went underneath To bring his brother out He surfaced By the ore cart With red grit in his eyes He spoke in both their voices And neither voice was his Ezra Bell, Ezra Bell Which one answered From the pit? The veil returned a body But the voices never fit Twenty years after Ezra came back Two voices Crossed the pit One called out for the Hauling rope One begged them Not to lift it Ezra Bell, Ezra Bell They say he never lies Ask him which one left the Veil He always answers twice
