Lyrics
Intro [Verse 1] There was a girl and there was a house with one lamp lit There was a boy who said the door was never locked The television talked to no one until morning And nobody came home to see what it had cost Downstairs the faces were the color of the plaster Young and patient, waiting for the show to start [Verse 2 ] Are you afraid of the part of you that wants it Are you afraid you'll walk out of here at all Listen to the wind and the bell in the steeple Listen to the crowd that gathers at the door [Pre-Chorus ] Shame on the one who lived You will pay The buried get up [Chorus ] Murderer Murderer Children who were small once, small no more Roaring out a single word Murderer [Verse 3] Will the man with the iron save what's left of you Will the road he walks you down go under ground Tell the truth, he says, there's nothing here to fear Tell the truth he wrote for you to say [Pre-Chorus ] Shame on the one who lived You will pay The buried get up [Chorus ] Murderer Murderer Children who were small once, small no more Roaring out a single word Murderer [Psychedelic Drop ] Innocence Innocence goes under first Innocence Bring it back up from the water Bring us back up from the smoke [Movement] [Pre-Chorus] Shame on the one who lived You will pay, the buried get up Under the floor the iron waits Thank the men who sent you down [Chorus] Murderer Murderer Children who were small once, small no more Roaring out a single word Murderer Mama We came in from the yard Mama We are not angry, we are cold We waited where you left us We are waiting there still We only came to ask you Say it with us [Final] Murderer Murderer Murderer Murderer [End]
