Mouth of Swords Songtext
von The Safety Fire
Mouth of Swords Songtext
We′re bored and bankrupt
With a lust for tragedy
(Headlines) read the palm
Of our destroyer
Flags dead at the top of their poles
The lights didn't come back on
They prayed for the horsemen
That never came
Revelation of silence
Go back to sleep, I′ll wake you
They all looked for him
Twisted hands to the sky
(Their minds) dead to life
Our own destroyer
Flags dead at the top of their poles
The lights didn't come back on
They prayed for the horsemen
That never came
Revelation of silence
Go back to sleep, I'll wake you
Two naked bodies in a twisted embrace
Hands over fist, they stare at each other
′Til they, ′til they blinked no more
We burnt, all we could
Nothing left to safe
The wasteland (a daydream)
We burnt, all we could
Nothing left to safe
The wasteland (a daydream)
We burnt, all we could
Nothing left to safe
The wasteland
Your hands the last warmth, in the ash
The last specters of love, as we fall
Fall!
Fall!
We're bored and bankrupt
With a lust for tragedy
(Headlines) read the palm
They prayed for the horsemen
That never came
Revelation of silence
Go back to sleep, I′ll wake you
They prayed for the horsemen
That never came
Revelation of silence
Go back to sleep, I'll wake you
With a lust for tragedy
(Headlines) read the palm
Of our destroyer
Flags dead at the top of their poles
The lights didn't come back on
They prayed for the horsemen
That never came
Revelation of silence
Go back to sleep, I′ll wake you
They all looked for him
Twisted hands to the sky
(Their minds) dead to life
Our own destroyer
Flags dead at the top of their poles
The lights didn't come back on
They prayed for the horsemen
That never came
Revelation of silence
Go back to sleep, I'll wake you
Two naked bodies in a twisted embrace
Hands over fist, they stare at each other
′Til they, ′til they blinked no more
We burnt, all we could
Nothing left to safe
The wasteland (a daydream)
We burnt, all we could
Nothing left to safe
The wasteland (a daydream)
We burnt, all we could
Nothing left to safe
The wasteland
Your hands the last warmth, in the ash
The last specters of love, as we fall
Fall!
Fall!
We're bored and bankrupt
With a lust for tragedy
(Headlines) read the palm
They prayed for the horsemen
That never came
Revelation of silence
Go back to sleep, I′ll wake you
They prayed for the horsemen
That never came
Revelation of silence
Go back to sleep, I'll wake you
