the Pledge - A Static Lullaby

I pillaged your fairytale

I’ve scattered the seas to find a reason why

My whiskey tongue leaves sweaty palms

On a sawed off way to say I own the night

Keep your women and children inside, he’s looking for a good time

Keep your women and children inside, he’s looking for a good time

Here lie my darkest passengers

Embodied in my mind is where they all reside

Here lie my darkest passengers

They lie awake tonight, until she’s put to rest

In search of a sailor, the headlines have said

This man is a monster, a vermin at best

You don’t give a fuck that I’m a rat

Give a fuck that I’m a rat

Here lie my darkest passengers

Embodied in my mind is where they all reside

Here lie my darkest passengers

They lie awake tonight, until she’s put to rest

So bundle up and wrap up tight

My blade the chill in your fright

I’m just a man but I brought a legion of pain

Don’t make, don’t make me

I’m feeling a lovers query

Please, take my hand, your body’s cold and I still see her face

Please, understand, I’m giving back

They’ll find true love in your loss

And you can be a part of this

And I can be a part of this

You don’t give a fuck that I’m a rat

I’m just giving back

True passion a sadistic fiend

Revolver and the lives we lead

So rope me up or take me in

This always starts it never ends

I’m living dead

Here lie my darkest passengers

Embodied in my mind is where they all reside

Here lie my darkest passengers

They lie awake tonight, until she’s put to rest
