Shiivers - Crook & Flail Lyrics

I dare you to plead
Cut a rug to ecstasy
Sacrifice the leader
Pledge a hail to Caesar
You could send your fools
I will show them all the rules
Betray your crown for treasure
Currency for pleasure

Slave, Slave
Captive of the night
Faith, Faith
Bury me in the light
Yeah, Yeah
Fortune never made
Oh, Oh
Plans laid to waste

So we sneak in the room
Destiny wrapped in wool
Queen is now the captive
Serpents sting the basket
They said you will see, future makes your history
Trade your gilded heroes
Violins for Nero

Slave Slave
Captive of the night
Faith Faith
Reaching for the light
Hey hey
Were you ever there
Oh, oh did they even care?

Where you're going, oh there's no coming back
No, there's no coming back
No, there's no coming back
Where you're going, oh there's no coming back
No, there's no coming back
No there's no coming back

Slave Slave
Captive of the night
Faith Faith
Reaching for the light
Hey hey
Harvest never made
Oh, Oh
Plans laid to waste

Where you're going, oh there's no coming back
No, there's no coming back
No, there's no coming back
Where you're going, oh there's no coming back
No, there's no coming back
No, there's no coming back
