Well ring the bell backwards and bury the axe
Fall down on your knees in the dirt
I'm tied to the mast between water and wind
Believe me you'll never get hurt
Our ring's in the pawnshop the rain's in the hole
Down at the Five Points I -------stand
I'll lose everything
But I won't let go of your hand
Well P eter d enied and J udas bet rayed
I'll b ail with the r oll of t he drum
And the w ind will t ell the t urn from the w heel
And the w atchman is m aking his r ounds
Well y ou'll leave me h anging by the s kin of my teeth
I've o nly got on e leg to st and
You can s end me to h ell
But I'l l never let g o of your h and
S wing from a rope on a c ross-legged dream
S igned with One Eyed J ack's blood
From T emple to Union to L A and Grand
W alking back home in the mud
Now I must make my best of the only
Molly deals only in stone
I'm lost on the midway I'm reckless
Just give me a couple more throws
I'll dare you to dine with the cross
Dare me to jump and I ---- will
I'll fall from your grace
But I'll never let go of your hand
I'll never let go of your hand
way home
in your eyes
-legged knight
