Bell, Book and Candle

Lyrics

[Verse] This town, near-demilitarized Where carrier pigeons commit ritual suicide Pleas for pity, and blank responses collide Tied to their ankles, tied like tired anchors But I know you drink like a fish out of water and You're everywhere, everywhere Without a drop for me We were land lovers Together Or don't you remember? (Don't you remember?) Don't you rеmember? [Pre-Chorus] But you're a rеgular Benedict When you wander, like a derelict House to house You're a regular traitor [Chorus] We stood and shook red-handed Burying the hatchet Even as our legs cried out To run in different directions We stood and shook red-handed (We stood) Burying the hatchet (And shook) Even as our legs cried out (Our legs) To run in different directions (Cried out) [Verse] The innest crowd is throwing up last night's party In a floor that isn't theirs 'Til even their bodies hate their guts We've worked this swords to ploughshares And back until our shared secrets were cannon fodder And constants caused a coup d'etat [Chorus] We stood and shook red-handed Burying the hatchet Even as our legs cried out To run in different directions We stood and shook red-handed (We stood) Burying the hatchet (And shook) Even as our legs cried out (Our legs) To run in different directions (Cried out) [Interlude] Bell, book, and... Bell, book, candle [Outro] So are you gonna drop me like your morals? Gonna drop me like you promised? Gonna drop me like our ideals? Gonna drop me like our dreams? Or are you gonna drop me like your concern For others and being honest? You gonna drop me like all logic? Beyond reason, there you are Gonna drop me like your morals? Gonna drop me like you promised? Gonna drop me like our ideals? Gonna drop me like our dreams? You gonna drop me like your concern (We stood and shook red-handed) For others and being honest? (Burying the hatchet) Gonna drop me like all logic? (Even as our legs) Beyond reason, there you are (Cried out to run) Gonna drop me like your morals? (To run) Gonna drop me like you promised? (To run) Gonna drop me like our ideals? (To run) Gonna drop me like our dreams? (To run) Our dreams
