His Kiss, the Riot 歌詞

 

The devil take this Orpheus

 

And his belladonna kiss

 

Beautiful poisonous lovely deadly

 

Dangerous this jack of hearts

 

With his kiss the riot starts

 

All my children came here poor

Clamoring for bed and board

Now what do they clamor for

 

Freedom

Freedom

 

Have I made myself their lord

Just to fall upon the sword

Of some pauper's minor chord

 

Who will lead them

Who lays all our best-laid plans

 

Who makes work for idle hands

 

Only one thing to be done

 

Let them go but let there be some term to be agreed upon

Some condition

 

Orpheus the undersigned shall not turn to look behind

 

She's out of sight and he's out of his mind

 

Every coward seems courageous in the safety of a crowd

Bravery can be contagious when the band is playing loud

Nothing makes a man so bold

 

As a woman's smile and a hand to hold

But all alone his blood runs thin

 

 

And doubt comes doubt comes in
