Before the dawn (Aftermath): Phantasmagoria Blues

I have given to you, Jane

A torn and tattered love

But do you hear the tolling bells

That ring down from above?

I thought I'd rule like CharlemagneBut I've become corruptNow I crawl the promenadeTo fill my empty cup

And you're freeYou're free againOne more time

Now if you found a razor bladeAnd took it to your wristThen I'd be here in my electric chairBecause of this

All last night and night beforeI stood on the pier and criedBut I don't want to turn awayFor fear of going blind

And you're freeYou're free againOne more time

I have given to you, JaneA bruised and beaten loveBut do you see the cold white lightThat shines down from above?

Thought I'd rule like CharlemagneBut I've become corruptNow I'll crawl the promenadeTo fill my empty cup

And you're freeYou're free againOne more time

And you're freeYea, you're free againOne more time
