Lyrics

[Verse 1] Did you sweep us far from your feet? Reset in stone this stark belief? Salted eyes and a sordid dye Too many years [Chorus] But don't despair This day will be their damnedest day Oh, if you take these things from me [Verse 2] Did you feed us tales of deceit? Conceal the tongues who need to speak? Subtle lies and a soiled coin The truth is sold, the deal is done [Chorus] But don't despair This day will be their damnedest day Oh, if you take these things from me [Bridge] Undefied, no signs of regret Your swollen pride assumes respect Talons fly as a last disguise But no return, the time has come [Chorus] So don't despair This day will be their damnedest day Oh, if you take these things from me [Outro] Oh, if you take these things from me
