I The Mighty - The Frame I: Betrayal In The Watchtower

We'd meet with no light
In the blanket of night
We'd talk of the keepers
Our hatred was high
I will always remember
The way he was acting that night

We hashed out a plan
That was tactful and slow
We'd overthrow them
Before they would know
Still, he had his agenda and
Chose me to star in his show
So it goes...

We gathered in the early morning sun
To watch the weekly hanging
Whose life ran out of luck?
A friend of ours whose motives fit the bill
For their age old ideals
It's a fear game
No the narrative never improves:
You fuck with us, you lose

Run, run for your life!
Jig is up and we're running out of time
If we make it through night
I will never let you go
Such is the price you will pay
If you trust the man in white
But mark my words
He'll find the wrong end of my knife

Inside the watchtower we stood
When he shot our confidant
Then pushed him off the roof
He threw the gun down at my feet
And just as they came for me
He smiled from check to cheek

Run, run for your life!
Jig is up and we're running out of time
If we make it through night
I will never let you go
Such is the price you will pay
If you trust the man in white
But mark my words
He'll find the wrong end of my knife

No more home
Leaving all we know

I thought we were safe
Till I looked at her hands
The small of her back
The blood hit the sand
I will always remember
The calm in her voice as she said
"You must go this alone
I won't make it, my love
My heart will grow tired
My legs will grow numb"
And I knew it was true but
I promised her she'd see the sun
The sun. See the sun
The sun. Feel the sun
The sun. See the sun
The sun. Feel the sun

So we wait for a miracle once again!
I won't let them take you from us!
