Fistful Of Swoon Lyrics - Divide And Conquer - Vandaveer

the stench of sulfur 

climbing up the drain 

open up your chest 

your heart would smell the same 

you got a lot of nerve 

defyn' your old man's word 

blood on your boots 

you got lust in your veins 

the shriek of sirens 

singing out of tune 

a dozen black roses 

in a hideous room 

you got a swagger 

you got a fistful of swoon 

blood on your hands 

steady that silver spoon 

though your towers were tall 

and your powers were grand 

you could not understand 

how you fell from great heights 

and you burrowed with speed 

a kingdom you did lead 

from heaven to hell 

cast from the garden 

with cunning and rage 

biding your time 

through dark and empty days 

trade in your canons 

your tenants and rules 

for pandemonium 

high capital ruse 

ashes to ashes 

dust to dust 

all for not 

if not for all of us 

mighty king 

you held the reins 

you drove your chariot 

right down the drain 

though your towers were tall 

and your powers were grand 

you could not understand 

how you fell from great heights 

and you burrowed with speed 

a kingdom you did lead 

from heaven to hell 

though your towers were tall 

and your powers were grand 

you could not understand 

how you fell from great heights 

and you burrowed with speed 

a kingdom you did lead 

from heaven to hell
