Flesh and Bone

Burn the liars Sound, hear that sound On the battleground From the blood red sky to the underground Oh the bones that age and creak and ghosts that follow me Blade, pretty blade It's the one I made for the new crusade Like a serenade of the edge that dives so deep And ghosts that follow me From the spark to the flame From anonymous to fame From the miracle of life to the threshold of shame I'm falling and calling for you Your words allure to bind and seize So by the light of dawn I'll have you on your knees Sound Hear that sound on the battleground From the blood red sky to the underground Oh the bones that age and creak and ghosts that follow me Blade, pretty blade It's the one I made For the new crusade Like a serenade of the edge that dives so deep And ghosts that follow me Dance on a razor Give the lawless one a shout He settles each favour while he plans to cut you out And yet you praise his name While sheep sleep and graze If you try to take our liberties away We will take you down From the spark to the flame From anonymous to fame From the miracle of life to the threshold of shame I'm calling and falling for you Your words allure to bind and seize So by the light of dawn I'll have you on your knees From the thrown to the grave From a king to a slave From the mightiest mountain to the loneliest cave I'm falling and calling for you You broke one million hearts so easily And by the break of dawn I'll have you on your knees Have you on your knees I'll have you on your knees
