Violet Hill

Violet Hill
Was a long and dark December
From the rooftops i remember
There was snow
White snow
Clearly i remember
From the windows they were watching
While we froze down below

When the future's architectured
By a carnival of idiots on show
You'd better lie low
If you love me
Won't you let me know?
Cuz' if you love me
Won't you let me know?
Was a long and dark December
When the banks became cathedrals
And the fog
Became good
Priest clutched onto bibles
And went out to fit their rifles
And the cross was held aloft
Bury me in honor
When i'm dead and hit the ground
A love back home unfolds
If you love
Won't you let me know?
Cuz' if you love me
Won't you let me know?
I don't want to be a soldier
Whit a capitan of some sinking ship
Whit snow, far below
So if you love me
Why'd you let me go?
Cuz' you love me
Won't you let me know?
I took my love down to Vilet Hill
There we sat in snow
All the time she was silent still

So if you love me
Won't you let me know?
Cuz' if you love me
Won't you let me know?
