Was a long and dark December
From the rooftops i remember
There was snow
White snow
Clearly I remember
From the windows
they were watching
While we froze down below
When the future's architectured
By a carnival
of idiots on show
You'd better lie low
If you love me
Won't you let me know
Was a long and dark December
When the banks
became cathedrals
And the fox
Became God
Priests clutched onto bibles
Hollowed out
to fit their rifles
And the cross was held aloft
Bury me in armor
When I'm dead
and hit the ground
My nerves are poles
that unfroze
If you love me
Won't you let me know
I don't want to be a soldier
That a captain
of some sinking ship
Would stow far below
So if you love me
Why'd you let me go
I took my love down
to violet hill
There we sat in snow
All that time
she was silent still
Said if you love me
Won't you let me know
If you love me
Won't you let me know
