The Guillotine

When I was born I was baptized

Not too sure what that meant

Guess it was all worth a good try

I believe God's word over man's

Someone told me to step down

Something told me to leave

Told me to write all these words down

Said, "The answer's ahead in the trees"

And your eyes, they shine like a guillotine

Cut through the heads of a thousand men

Your eyes, they sew like morphine

Flow through his veins as the land has been

Your eyes, they fly like a car crash dead in the night

And your eyes, darling, go by

I've been looking for hotels

Ones that have the right light

Girl, you look like an angel

Just the right kind that I like

Running low on excuses

Watch never kept that good time

Everything's just how it's supposed to

Yeah, you bleed just to know you're alive

And your eyes, they shine like a guillotine

Cut through the heads of a thousand men

Your eyes, they sew like morphine

Flow through his veins as the land has been

Your eyes, they fly like a car crash dead in the night

And your eyes, darling, go by

Wanna know, wanna know

Just how it goes

Wanna know, wanna know

Just how it goes

Na-na, na-na-na

That's how it goes

Na-na, na-na-na

Na-na-na-na-na

And your eyes, they shine like a guillotine

Cut through the heads of a thousand men

Your eyes, they sew like morphine

Flow through his veins as the land has been

Your eyes, they fly like a car crash dead in the night

And your eyes, darling, go by
