lyrics

Sharp stained glass primed in my hand
Ready to cut down any man
Ready to cut down any man

Don’t step a foot upon my land
Many have tried and joined the damned
Many have tried and joined the damned

Cos ive unwavering belief in doubt
of which I’m proud
A life devout
Yet smiles speak from cynics mouths

No breaking down my walls no digs below
You walk up slow
And soften stone
When all I’ve known is Jericho

I look in your eyes and then look again
And so starts a story from way,
Way back when

Race past relics run from grace
Chase an old forgotten face
Chase an old forgotten face

I swear I used to know your name
Light the coals and spark a flame
Light the coals and spark a flame

Cos I’ve been sat here for so long a dark and
lonely song
From dusk to dawn
Goes on and on and on and on

But in the air is something light
a dancing through the bite
Red skies at night
And Jericho sleeps safe tonight

I’ll dance by your side till the very end
And so starts a story from way, way back when

I’ll dance with ya till the end
I’ll dance with ya till the end
I’ll dance with ya till the end
I’ll dance with ya till the end
I’ll dance with ya till the end
I’ll dance with ya till the end
I’ll dance with ya till the end
I’ll dance with ya till the
Hey Hey Hey!
