Lyrics

Iron bells… darkened sky…
The rope is waiting, as am I.

Stone walls bleeding tears of pain
Chains bite deeper than the prayers of men
Heartbeat screaming justice done
The law cries murder, so for love there's none

Tomorrow the sun will burn my skin
At dawn the rope will sing

Her scars ran deep, shattered porcelain
Her tears the flood which drew me in
He broke her voice, he crushed her frame
I took his heart, I carved his name

My fury rose, the blade condemned
The noose. her life transcends

Tyburn Gallows take me in,
Where crows confess their final sins.
For love I've bled, for love I’ll swing,
The price of mercy
is suffering.

The rope sways gently in the fog
The mob a sea of shrieking song
I taste her lips in memory's flame
Our love eternal will remain

Beneath the gallows here I stand,
A fallen halo from which I'll hang
The baying crowd. A theatre show
Dropping fast but choking slow

Ravens circling overhead
The bell tolls once, the sky turns red

Tyburn Gallows take me home,
Where death is freedom and silence roams
Break my breath, unchain my soul
The hangman's shadow
Consumes us all

Tyburn Gallows take me in,
Where crows confess their final sins.
For love I've bled, for love I’ll swing,
The price of mercy
is suffering.
