Ballad of Treason

This kiss is a crime, let's not waste time
The cover of night is breaking
We even the score, we capture five more
Make a forbidden offering

Our heads are two states, let's pull down the gates
Declaring freedom
Send out our armies, bring death to our colonies
Harmony drowns out the cries of our generals

Climb up to the tree top, I'll be on the mountain top
Looking for you across the valley
First word you heard, oh, the sky is on fire
Crying for the dying daylight
I need you, I need you, I need you

Bodies on pyres, waiting for fire
The judge and the generals, dangerous diction
The faithful assemble, the crowd starts to tremble
The cavalry arises and begins to fall

The treason proclaim, fires bursts into flame
Doom sows right the sparks in to the blue

Climb up to the tree top, I'll be on the mountain top
Looking for you across the valley
First word you heard was sky is on fire
Crying for the dying daylight
I need you, I need you, I need you

This world is a shackle, I shout to the crowd
"Bring down the walls of Jericho"

Climb up to the tree top, I'll be on the mountain top
Looking for you across the valley
First word you heard was the sky is on fire
Crying for the dying daylight
I need you, I need you
