Was a long and dark December
|
From the rooftops i remember
|
There was snow
|
White snow
|
|
Clearly i remember
|
From the windows they were watching
|
While we froze down below
|
|
When the future's architectured
|
By a carnival of idiots on show
|
You'd better lie low
|
|
If you love me
|
Won't you let me know?
|
|
Was a long and dark December
|
When the banks became cathedrals
|
And the fox
|
Became God
|
|
Priests clutched onto bibles
|
Hollowed out to fit their rifles
|
And the cross was held aloft
|
|
Bury me in armor
|
When i'm dead and hit the ground
|
My nerves are poles that unfroze
|
|
If you love me
|
Won't you let me know?
|
|
I don't want to be a soldier
|
Who the captain of some sinking ship
|
Would stow, far below
|
|
So if you love me
|
Why'd you let me go?
|
|
I took my love down to violet hill
|
There we sat in snow
|
All that time she was silent still
|
|
So if you love me
|
Won't you let me know?
|
|
If you love me,
|
Won't you let me know?
