Angels fall to the floor Like they would if I was Captain Silver children, she roared I'm not the son of God Somebody help me sing Can anybody hear me? Liars and lovers combine tonight We're gonna make a scene Somebody help me sing, whoa Somebody help me sing, whoa Help me Captain of our crippled disguises I won't show what's underneath It's time for surprises I can't climb up your ladder I cannot ride your horse I've swallowed half an hourglass So now the landscape is swollen up I gave birth to a fire It's like it's features were burning I'm in control I am the son of God Somebody help me sing Can anybody hear me? Line up your soldiers on final time We're gonna have a ball Somebody help me sing, whoa Somebody help me sing, whoa Help me Captain of our crippled disguises I won't show what's underneath It's time for surprises I can't climb up your ladder I cannot ride your horse I've swallowed half an hourglass So now the landscape is swollen up Let's lock death away
