Leviathan

After the deadlock and dazzle
As good as, or better than gold
I lay down my guns on the table
First scarlet, then blue growing cold
Black light and smoke
Making a joke
In the haze of a setting sun
Leviathan waits in the water
Skeletons hide in the trees
The hours crawl by like a spider
Hangman is following me
At sorrow´s door
A century more
In the rays of a setting sun
After the deadlock and dazzle
Glitters at night like it´s gold
You lay down your heart if you´re able
First scarlet, then blue growing cold
Everyday a prayer
For what I never knew
But this is one I said for you
As good as, or better than gold
I lay down my guns on the table
First scarlet, then blue growing cold
Black light and smoke
Making a joke
In the haze of a setting sun
Leviathan waits in the water
Skeletons hide in the trees
The hours crawl by like a spider
Hangman is following me
At sorrow´s door
A century more
In the rays of a setting sun
After the deadlock and dazzle
Glitters at night like it´s gold
You lay down your heart if you´re able
First scarlet, then blue growing cold
Everyday a prayer
For what I never knew
But this is one I said for you
