lyrics

Rough hands silently wake
Armies of the dawn
On the twilight train
Ride to the docks
And the towers in droves
Carrying a load
Name without a name

While the smoke talkers
Droppers of names
High born sons
With no skin in the game
Finish their night
On a rooftop glow
They don’t have a load
We are not the same

Take the city as a liar
Doesn’t care about the truth
Bring the beast to the doorstep
Hide your dreams like troops

He’s a jackal not a boss
Put your week in a noose
Gotta hold him accountable
Comin home to roost
Coming home to roost

5am shift white knuckle grip
Daddy was raised
Neath the throgsneck bridge
I could count myself
In the ranks of them
But I want out and Im climbing

I preyed with the vultures
The soul they steal
Dragged a corpse
In the dust of my wheels
Feast on a lyre
With a carrion call
Shout my name
From the city walls

Take the city as a liar
Doesn’t care about the truth
Bring the beast to the doorstep
Hide your dreams like troops

He’s a jackal not a boss
He’ll put your week in a noose
Gotta hold him accountable
Coming home to roost
Coming home to roost
