Gallows

Silence

The royal cul-de-sac

It shatters you to pieces

Slowly breaks your neck

And all the sweating

All the shivering we've done is worthless

Longing for a warmth that only fire can give

You're just as dead, bring on the gasoline

We're burning to be seen

Your soup has gone cold. My drink's warmed up

Is anyone listening? Cause I think you're not

It's this mediocrity of everything

That keeps my eyes shut in the morning

I´ve seen you

Busy putting holes into the ground

Making seeds grow to be gallows

To let your fears hang down

And the cops won't come in time to stop you leaving

You caught me blind in your headlights

Come find me on the other side

Silence

A hollow victory

Can't really say how one tells it from defeat

It's been a long job piecing this together, love

A whole that must spell Death To Us

We must burn. We must burn

Drown in the heat

I´ve seen you

Busy putting holes into the ground

Making seeds grow to be gallows

To let your fears hang down

And the cops won't come in time to stop you leaving

You caught me blind in your headlights

Come find me on the other side

And I've seen you

Busy putting pins into my eyes

So I can't see where you´re going

Once we've said goodbye

And the cops can go to hell and take us with them

You caught me blind in your headlights

I'll see you in another life
