Let Me Out

Climb up the ladder, holding light What would you steal from me tonight? Behind a mask, wrapped in your cloak Untie my hair and hold me close Just hold me close And when I'm running through a field Some strange demon at my heels Something watches from its tower Drops of blood on every flower On every flower Oh, I'll leave my dress behind As they preach from up on high Bury the letter they'll never see Our limbs stretched out against a tree Burning quietly at the stake Tie me up and I will wake Wings are beating against my chest Leave me now like all the rest For all the rest Skin so pale in a room of white Blood on my teeth, I'm kept alive Kiss me now, ignore their cries You've turned golden before my eyes In my eyes Oh, I'll leave my dress behind As they preach from up on high Bury the letter they'll never see Our limbs stretched out against a tree So let me in, let me out Let me in, let me out Do not give your secret out Do not give your secret out
