Fur / Ticker Tape

Lyrics

[Verse 1] The last speech that I heard Didn't mean a thing Not a thing to me The one who hung the earth Upon the waters What should I believe? Should I believe? The last word that was said Heavy and dead A fur on a king The one who hung the curtain Of the cosmos What is left to dream? Is there a dream? [Chorus] Oh, the headline says it all "The lowest circle isn't all that far" In any story, it's the hardest part Oh, the ticker tape speaks to me "In this world there is misery" With this world Let me make my peace [Verse 2] The last song that was played A serenade A pretty little thing The one who tore the curtain Top to bottom Can you hear the strings? Can you hear the strings? The last breath that I have It has to last For all of eternity The one who closed the gates Upon the garden Open the gates for me! Open the gates for me! [Chorus] Oh, the headline says it all "The lowest circle isn't all that far" In any story, it's the hardest part Oh, the ticker tape speaks to me "In this world there is misery" With this world Let me make my peace
