Bane, "Swan Song" from The Note
Today won't be like yesterday
The bell tolls for an hour straight
Screaming mothers chase their children down
Fathers tear out their eyes
As the city topples to the ground
Outside the streets are in a panic
Truth sellers jump from tall, tall ledges
No sign of Christ with a sword in his mouth
Beneath the blodd res sky I'll sit and laugh with you tonight
This is a promise I made to you
I'll ve right there
I'll be right next to you
When the trumpets blare the loudest and cannons roar
All the trains that once came for you
Spill off the tracks florr
All your horrors they multiply
And you realize your fears
I'll block your ears with both of my hands
Kiss away the tears
When the armageddon's been locked and loaded
I will come back for you...
I think about Elyse when I hear this song. It's funny because Bane is the only hardcore band that she likes. This is a really good song, though; so is "One for the Boys" which is about Texas Hold 'Em poker.
