Swing

Open the gates of your armory -- let me in
This winter has come too soon
Up in this whirlwind of spiraling white teeth
I fall to the feet of the moon

Brother this road is a long and winding
Pathway into dispair
Pick up your axe and hold it tightly
The devils breath darkens the air

Up on the watchtower, eyes all-seeing
Conjur, conceive, and defile
Down in the street the innocent swing
To be cut down and laid out for miles

Brother this road is a long and winding
Pathway into dispair
Pick up your axe and hold it tightly
The devils breath darkens the air

Ripe for the basket you young sheepish lad
I'll poll you and claim you to die
Your ticket to life is attached to this muzzle
Its loaded with all of my lies

Oh and Brother this road is a long and winding
Pathway into dispair
Pick up your axe and hold it tightly
The devils breath darkens the air

But know, for a second, breath frozen in fear
Nothing is quite in vain if you see it from here
I see the pawns are falling, but we're pushing through
Take it from me its all thanks to you and you and you

Brother this road is a long and winding
Pathway into dispair
Pick up your axe and hold it tightly
The devils breath darkens the air

Swing from the rope
Swing from the rope
Swing from the rope of your fear
