Goliath

Lyrics

[Intro: Sam Carter] Oh [Verse 1: Sam Carter] Don't say we're better off dead, soon we could be in remission I said, "It's not enough" They told me, "It'll be fine, happiness isn't a crime, son" So pick your guts from the floor [Pre-Chorus: Sam Carter] We'll all be hanging a hero Praying for someone to save us Goliath says I oughta let it go [Chorus: Sam Carter] Nobody's proving me wrong They're all singing, "Hallelujah" Keep two eyes open 'Cause jackals live by the candlelight [Verse 2: Sam Carter] We've got a mountain to climb, but I ain't got the permission They wanna call my bluff They said, "You're crossing the line" I said, "It takes one to know one" [Interlude: Sam Carter] Oh, please, God, be merciful 'Cause they, they know not what they do We should be begging for more [Pre-Chorus: Sam Carter] We'll all be hanging a hero Praying for someone to save us Goliath says I oughta let it go [Chorus: Sam Carter] Nobody's proving me wrong They're all singing, "Hallelujah" Keep two eyes open 'Cause jackals live by the candlelight [Post-Chorus: Sam Carter] Bury your head in the sand Soon you'll be feeling the fangs So sleep with two eyes open 'Cause jackals live by the candlelight [Bridge: Simon Neil] Long live the king that's not listening (No time for rats in the gutter) Snakes coiling, but we're signalling (Screaming at one another) Long live the king that's not listening (No time for rats in the gutter) Snakes coiling, but we're signalling (Screaming at one another) [Breakdown: Simon Neil] Smoke 'em out and set a fire in the hive They wouldn't break their stride If we were burning alive Burning alive [Interlude: Sam Carter] The jackals live by the candlelight They live by the candlelight [Chorus: Sam Carter] Nobody's proving me wrong They're all singing, "Hallelujah" Keep two eyes open 'Cause jackals live by the candlelight [Post-Chorus: Sam Carter] Bury your head in the sand Soon you'll be feeling the fangs So sleep with two eyes open 'Cause jackals live by the candlelight
