No one looks in this place for motive or any hope | |
But for the dead shot of an amber glass, the blue light of a votive | |
Rain obscured the window as the pain was dulled by the grains | |
Absolved by spoons in flames and fear in time dissolving | |
It's not for the faint of pulse or anybody false | |
Those amateurs who simply shed their skins | |
So where are those traitors now, we once called patriots? | |
Just like those saints who seem to revel in their sins | |
Oh, my eyes were filled with tears that were stinging | |
After our assassin's work was done | |
The bells and hands were only there for the wringing | |
And we were bringing bullets for the new-born king | |
The trumpet sound lamenting, tramping down the blooms of the deceased | |
The double agent girl and the fallen priest were heading for the border | |
Somewhere in the high command, there stayed the palest hand | |
That saw the order countermand, erased a tape recorder | |
And then they hung him from a window cord | |
Swallow down that voodoo vial and stay your breath a while | |
Before we spill the tale that we have spun | |
And now I shall confide all that | |
I have denied | |
Oh, I'm so sorry for the things | |
I've doneOh, my eyes were filled with tears that were stinging | |
After our assassin's work was done | |
The bells and hands were only there for the wringing | |
And we were bringing bullets for the new-born king |

Oh, my eyes were filled with tears that were stinging | |
After our assassin' s work was done | |
The bells and hands were only there for the wringing | |
And we were bringing bullets for the newborn king | |
The trumpet sound lamenting, tramping down the blooms of the deceased | |
