~#**************#~
It was a long and dark December
~#**************#~
From the rooftops, I remember
~#**************#~
There was snow, white snow
~#**************#~
Clearly I remember
~#**************#~
From the windows, they were watchin
~#**************#~
While we froze down below
~#**************#~
When the futures architectured
~#**************#~
By a carnival of idiots on show
~#**************#~
Youd better lie low
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
If you love me
~#**************#~
Wont you let me know?
~#**************#~
[Verse 2]
~#**************#~
Was a long and dark December
~#**************#~
When the banks became cathedrals
~#**************#~
And the fox became God
~#**************#~
Priests clutched onto Bibles
~#**************#~
Hollowed out to fit their rifles
~#**************#~
And a cross was held aloft
~#**************#~
Bury me in armour
~#**************#~
When Im dead and hit the ground
~#**************#~
My nerves are poles that unfroze
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
And if you love me
~#**************#~
Wont you let me know?
~#**************#~
[Interlude]
~#**************#~
Woah, woah
~#**************#~
[Bridge]
~#**************#~
I dont wanna be a soldier
~#**************#~
Who the captain of some sinking ship
~#**************#~
Would stow far below
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
So if you love me
~#**************#~
Whyd you let me go?
~#**************#~
[Outro]
~#**************#~
I took my love down to Violet Hill
~#**************#~
There we sat in snow
~#**************#~
All that time she was silent still
~#**************#~
So if you love me
~#**************#~
Wont you let me know?
~#**************#~
If you love me
~#**************#~
Wont you let me know?
