Clyde and the Milltailers - The Rope lyrics

Artist: Clyde and the Milltailers

album: Clyde and the Milltailers


The wells gone dry
The wells gone dry
Put the bags in the carriage
And a rag to your eye
The earths turned sour
The earths turned sour
Burn the plow for warmth
Put the roots in the cellar
Can't get drunk no more
Wont get drunk no more
Bodies gone to the earth minds spilled out on the floor
This earth wont give back anything anymore
You can't eat your silver can't drink your gold
Your powders all wet and your swords are all dull
The rope
The rope
The tower rings so loud
No more people to burn no more witches to drown
You tremble where you stand hand in hand
Looking for the answers you just don't understand
How could I be wrong why'd it take so long
Shadows of the stones cast set fire to my throne
The wells gone dry
The wells gone dry
Put the bags in the carriage
And a rag to your eye
The earths turned sour
The earths turned sour
Burn the plow for warmth
Put the roots in the cellar
Can't get drunk no more
Wont get drunk no more
Bodies gone to the earth minds spilled out on the floor
This earth wont give back anything anymore
Home in those cities guest till the end
Filling them prisons with blood to the brim
The rope
The rope
The tower rings so loud
Wondering through your home now burning to the ground
Bottles all empty
Chambers all full
Ain't no angels knocking at your door
Just skeleton bones to keep you warm
In that grave you dug for the world
The wells gone dry
The wells gone dry
Put the bags in the carriage
And a rag to your eye
The earths turned sour
The earths turned sour
Burn the plow for warmth
Put the roots in the cellar
Can't get drunk no more
Wont get drunk no more
Bodies gone to the earth minds spilled out on the floor
This earth wont give back anything anymore
The wells gone dry
The wells gone dry
Put the bags in the carriage
And a rag to your eye
The earths turned sour
The earths turned sour
Burn the plow for warmth
Put the roots in the cellar
Can't get drunk no more
Wont get drunk no more
Bodies gone to the earth minds spilled out on the floor
This earth wont give back anything anymore
Oh no this earth wont give back anything anymore
