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?
Was a long and dark December When the banks became cathedrals And the fox became God
Priests clutched onto bibles Hollowed out to fit their rifles And a cross held aloft
Bury me in armour When I'm dead and hit the ground My nerves are poles that unfroze
And If you love me Won't you let me know?
I don't want to be a soldier With the captain of some sinking ship With stow, far below
So if you love me Why'd you let me go?
I took my love down to violet hill There we sat in snow All that time she was silent still Said if you love me won't you let me know? If you love me won't you let me know?
