It Dies Today - Sacred Heart (Sacre Coeur) lyrics

From the gutter, the diamond seemed far too bright to see The gleaming eyes always tend to turn away (just turn away) And every innocent wish has granted tragedy Our hands have since been soiled with the blackest of coal Most days, I'd sit and wish for this place to fall into the bay Its greatest offense being thievery A nightmare awakened by boundless waters Will see a broken vow thrust into the arms of hellbound cowards And I've found the perfect accessory to that beautiful gown— The handsome ghost of me Most days, I'd sit and wish for this place to fall into the bay Its greatest offense being thievery And I will wash away the sins of former lovers A trail of stillborn conquest in my wake tonight Take this four-fingered salute I gave the fifth for you, my dear May it beckon you to the salts below Most days, I'd sit and wish for this place to fall into the bay Its greatest offense being thievery And I will wash away the sins of former lovers A trail of stillborn conquest in my wake tonight Tonight!
