Lyrics A Silent Film - Six Feet Of Rope And Revenge

at the end of the road
is a den of rules
he jumped to the lion's den
The noose was tied tight
around his neck
he used sound and blood to entertain

life is short
and the rules are long
they'll beat you again and again

when push comes to shove
your time is up
don't extinguish a flickering flame

this is not
a way to live
life's too short
to waste my friend

oooo, aaaah

with his broken heart
exposed to the world
he spelled pride with his hammer and his tongue

face to the wall
he put his back upon it
and sank to oblivion

and I'm on my
... (arts?)
should stand to the bitter end

growing crowd
is baying for blood
there want six feet of rope and revenge

this is not
a way to live
life's too short
to waste my friend
