When I die, don't bury me
Leave me to barren field
'Neath October's ruins
And that hungry hunter moon
She came in late, the dress was torn
Poured a drink then turned away
Haggard lips curled to a smile
I saw the leaving on her face
When I die don't bury me
Leave me to Judas field
'Neath October's ruins
And that hungry hunter moon
Smell his sweat, smell his skin
I couldn't stop, she didn't scream
Blood spread out along her tie
Running from the sharpen steel
When I die don't bury me
Leave me to killing field
'Neath October's ruins
And that hungry hunter moon
On my knees before Saint Martin
The silent moons so brief and brave
A little light, the only witness
To mark my murdered lover's grave
When I die don't bury me
Leave me to grieving field
'Neath October's ruins
And that hungry hunter moon
Yeah, when I die don't bury me
Leave me to the haunted field
'Neat October's ruins
And that hungry hunter moon
Scattered on the center stone
Little pieces of my bones
Let the crows and beetles dine
There'll be no redemption for my kind
