about

A conversation between two lovers/enemies.

lyrics

So I said,
"Don't make a sound,
We'll be found
if my father is walking.
Keep your head
close to the ground,
like a dead man I'm weary of talking."
But the scene of the dream of the crime
didn't mean that the scheme wasn't mine.

"Friend, you know
I wasn't there
I was scared
of his mode of discussion
and the slow
chill in the air
that would throw
us into submission.
Like a wise woman's eye's can't conceive
of her demise as she tries not the grieve,
I'm dismayed and betrayed by degrees.
I must take my leave!"

“Please don’t go,
I said I could pay
bow your head and pray
the angels are coming.
Hear them crow,
their wings have turned gray
lost their glow
and slate feathers are falling.
Like a cold calculated disease,
watch the greed as it takes what it sees.”

“Save your grin,
for if I stop here
then I fear
something evil will happen.
At the end
the harmony’s clear
but it’s been getting louder and laughing.
And you know if you show that you’re weak,
then you’ll grow and you’ll sow what you reap.
So lay down your arms and accept your defeat.
With a kiss on the cheek."
