Sacred Heart (Sacre Coeur) - It Dies Today

From the gutter, the diamond seemed far too bright to see

The gleaming eyes always tend to turn away (just turn away)

And every innocent wish has granted tragedy

Our hands have since been soiled with the blackest of coal

Most days, I’d sit and wish for this place to fall into the bay

Its greatest offense being thievery

A nightmare awakened by boundless waters

Will see a broken vow thrust into the arms of hellbound cowards

And I’ve found the perfect accessory to that beautiful gown—

The handsome ghost of me

Most days, I’d sit and wish for this place to fall into the bay

Its greatest offense being thievery

And I will wash away the sins of former lovers

A trail of stillborn conquest in my wake tonight

Take this four-fingered salute

I gave the fifth for you, my dear

May it beckon you to the salts below

Most days, I’d sit and wish for this place to fall into the bay

Its greatest offense being thievery

And I will wash away the sins of former lovers

A trail of stillborn conquest in my wake tonight

Tonight!
