Florence + The Machine - Ye Olde Hope
Old hope got stuck in your throat
Wound it's way round your neck caused you to choke
Old hope made of rope, that held you tight when the chair legs broke
When they found you hangin in the woods
you said atleast now I don't have to kind nor good
I'll be cruel and I'll obscene tear out my tongue
'Cause I've been redeemed
When they found you hangin in the woods
You said atleast now I don't have to kind nor good
I'll be cruel and I'll obscene tear out my tongue
'Cause I've been redeemed Take my (don't know what she says) or the grave
No shy glance, no coy restiants, and I wont hang my head
And I wont repent, wont face the wall and (don't know that one either)
5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10
Well they tore you down and they tore out your tongue
And they made you kneel for all the things that you'd done
But you wouldn't cry, you wouldn't beg
You just screamed and tore out your teeth instead
And when they found you hangin in the woods
You said atleast now I don't have to kind nor good
I'll be cruel and I'll obscene tear out my tongue
'Cause I've been redeemed
Wound it's way round your neck caused you to choke
Old hope made of rope, that held you tight when the chair legs broke
When they found you hangin in the woods
you said atleast now I don't have to kind nor good
I'll be cruel and I'll obscene tear out my tongue
'Cause I've been redeemed
When they found you hangin in the woods
You said atleast now I don't have to kind nor good
I'll be cruel and I'll obscene tear out my tongue
'Cause I've been redeemed Take my (don't know what she says) or the grave
No shy glance, no coy restiants, and I wont hang my head
And I wont repent, wont face the wall and (don't know that one either)
5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10
Well they tore you down and they tore out your tongue
And they made you kneel for all the things that you'd done
But you wouldn't cry, you wouldn't beg
You just screamed and tore out your teeth instead
And when they found you hangin in the woods
You said atleast now I don't have to kind nor good
I'll be cruel and I'll obscene tear out my tongue
'Cause I've been redeemed
