Shadow Moses

You said you'd die for me,
Now I want to see you prove it.
This is the final curtain call.
As for the play write children,
She has betrayed them all.
In the blink of an eye this thread has come undone.
The stage is set, yet the battles just begun.
You can hear the slamming of the shutters.
And the cries of the mothers behind those doors,
But their words are heard by no God.
Let him go, I'm the one you want.
This is the tale of the haves and the have nots.
(So slow down...)
Just dry your eyes before you go.
(Rivers never help the show)
I would never let them in to hurt you, no.
(Just keep it quiet, baby)
tell me it about be so easy just to slit that throat.
(Cause it's the way I want to go)
and watch you suffer as the blood flows down.
Take your time to let them all know,
You will have the best of both worlds.
Passing on would be so easy then,
Hold your breath and say goodbye to all your dearest friends
Because they won't be waiting on the other end.
Let him go, I'm the one you want.
This is the tale of the haves and the have nots.
(So slow down...)
Just dry your eyes before you go.
(Rivers never help the show)
I would never let them in to hurt you, no.
(Just keep it quiet, baby)
tell me it about be so easy just to slit that throat.
(Cause it's the way I want to go)
and watch you suffer as the blood flows down.
(Rivers never help the show)
You said you'd die for me. Won't you let me see?
(Slow down...)
Just dry your eyes before you go.
(Rivers never help the show)
I would never let them in to hurt you, no.
(Just keep it quiet, baby)
tell me it about be so easy just to slit that throat.
(Cause it's the way I want to go)
and watch you suffer as the blood flows...
