Was a long and dark December
From the rooftops i remember
There was snow
White snowClearly i remember
From the windows they were watching
While we froze down belowWhen the future's architectured
By a carnival of idiots on show
You'd better lie lowIf you love me
Won't you let me know?Was a long and dark December
When the banks became cathedrals
And the fog
Became GodPriests clutched onto bibles
hollowed out to fit their rifles
And the cross was held aloftBury me in armour
When i'm dead and hit the ground
A love back home unfoldsIf you love me
Won't you let me know?I don't want to be a soldier
when the captain of some sinking ship
would stow, far belowSo 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 stillSo if you love me
Won't you let me know?If you love me,
Won't you let me know?
