The Cat Empire Daggers Drawn song lyrics
Just beyond the velvet curtain
of your dark and empty room
all that god has run with silver
underneath the light of the moon
I can see you there drawn and
hiding even from your precious son
all the prophecies say the same thing
beware of the perilous one
don't beg for mercy
what's done is done
I'm gonna make this window
I'm gonna find this guy
if you're halfway human
your hearts a stone
now face the money
with daggers drawn
on the day across this feeling
nobody was saying its name
I have tried all kinds of ancient healing
still my heart is covered in clay
when my sister passed the bottle
when my brother passed that flame
on the darkening mountain shadows
we were shout out in the rain
don't beg for mercy
what's done is done
I'm gonna make this window
I'm gonna find this guy
if you're halfway human
your hearts a stone
now face the money
with daggers drawn
daggers drawn
do you remember those distant mornings
nobody then knew my name
I used to call myself a kind of thunder
when you came to me covered in flames
never question what I fight for
because i'm changeable like the sun
we have always been the lonely knight hawks
watching out for the perilous one
don't beg for mercy
what's done is done
I'm gonna make that window
I'm gonna find this guy
if you're halfway human
your hearts a stone
now face the money
with daggers drawn
don't fade
don't fade
don't fade
if you're halfway human
your hearts a stone
now face the money
with daggers drawn
with daggers drawn
with daggers drawn
