lyrics

It's all gone quiet, there's nothing more to do
But sit right here and write a song for you
The one who I love truly best of all
Held up by my ankles

Pound it with a hammer
Stakes into the ground
Sealing off this fortress
So you know I won't be found

Stare into the face of your betrayal
This time there's no way that I can fail
All the ghosts that haunt these empty streets
Raise a toast in honor

Pound it with a hammer
Stakes into the ground
Sealing off this fortress
So you know I won't be found
Although the sun shines brightly
There's nothing more to see
If you give your heart up then you won't be owing me
