0:27Did you sweep us far from your feet
0:33Reset in stone this stark belief
0:39Salted eyes and a sordid dye
0:45Too many years
0:51But don't despair
0:54This day will be the damnedest day
1:02Oh if you take these things from me
1:17Did you feed us tales of deceit
1:23Conceal the tongues who need to speak
1:29Subtle lies and a soiled coin the truth is sold
1:38The deal is done
1:41But don't despair
1:44This day will be the damnedest day
1:52Oh if you take these things from me
2:57Undefined no signs of regret
3:03Your swollen pride assumes respect
3:09Talons fly as a last disguise
3:15But no return the time has come
3:21So don't despair
3:24This day will be the damnedest day
3:32Oh if you take these things from me
3:45Oh if you take these things from me
Did you sweep us far from your feet Reset in stone this stark belief Salted eyes and a sordid dye Too many years But don't despair This day will be the damnedest day Oh if you take these things from me Did you feed us tales of deceit Conceal the tongues who need to speak Subtle lies and a soiled coin the truth is sold The deal is done But don't despair This day will be the damnedest day Oh if you take these things from me Undefined no signs of regret Your swollen pride assumes respect Talons fly as a last disguise But no return the time has come So don't despair This day will be the damnedest day Oh if you take these things from me Oh if you take these things from me
