I stopped watching from the first home
We're gathering for a throne
Taped up with a gold top
Feather covered combing over dead shots
Forcing old hymns through a naked swim

We're crawling up from the cold winds [2x]
Tell me when you're out [3x]

We're caught limping through the back door
A fever twist nothing more
Death toll for a whistle blow
The giant levers stolen off the marrow
Claiming tried friends with an empty tact

Appeal enough and we fall back [2x]
Tell me when you're out [8x]
