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 fog
became God
Priests clutched
onto bibles
Hollowed out
to fit their rifles
and the cross
was held aloft
Bury me in honour
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 wanna
be a soldier
with the captain of
some sinking ship
would stow
Far below
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?
