Kate and Corey - Mother Of Pearl lyrics

It was a glorious day for a hanging The villagers gathered around Didnt matter that I was not guilty And the weapon was never found You could see the cold ice in their gazes Blood was the main entree And the vampires just shook in their places Waiting for the hangman to say: Maam, youve been found responsible For the shooting d**h of that pretty girl The one who worked at the general store Who everyone knew as the mother of Pearl Pearl has no mother, and that is a crime And so you must hang on this line. I tried one more time to convince them But my words fell like fire on ice There was no use in begging for mercy Someone would pay the price So I closed both my eyes and remembered The happiest thing I could find The first thing to go is your breathing The last thing to go is your mind. And the chanting grew louder and louder And then I began to pray And when I had almost forgave them I heard them all start to say: Maam, youve been found responsible For the shooting d**h of that pretty girl The one who worked at the general store Who everyone knew as the mother of Pearl Pearl has no mother, and that is a crime And so you must hang on this line. Pearl has no mother, and that is a crime And so I hung on the line.
