Guillotine Lovers – ‌goodnight lavender Lyrics

I swore I'd find you even if I had to die

And crossed the border with a bullet in my eye

I wear her locket like a noose around my throat

A priest once warned me that there is no room for hope

She sealed her letter with a kiss and cyanide

I traced her words and felt the fever bloom inside

They built a gallows in the garden where she lay

I sworе I'd burn it all if she can't wait for me

Well, comе on!

The saints are laughing in the faces of our youth

They bless their bullets and they sanctify the truth

There are no heroes and the only way is through

So take the shot before they aim their cross at you

The workers gathered with their stakes and rosaries

She whispered curses through her teeth so they would bleed

They sealed her coffin deep within the ministry

But I once swore I'd bring the bastards to their knees

The choir chokes as I kick down the chapel door

I’m not a man, I’m just revenge in uniform

He took her hand, I took the blade behind my back

You want a witness? Watch me paint this altar black

I kissed a ghost beneath the chapel bell

It carved our names into the gates of hell

There's been a murder at Estelle Motel

I hope this letter never finds you well
