Song | English murder |
Artist | Sol Invictus |
Album | Trees in Winter |
I wait here by the coast, in the company of ghosts | |
I sit and watch the world go by, sometimes I just sit and cry | |
Just another English murder, a poster on the station wall | |
Just another English murder, Britannia gone rotten to the core | |
I carry my guilt like a watch, but one that just won't stop | |
Doomed by the hands of God, whose giggling won't stop | |
Chorus | |
By the line she lies dead, beneath a mattress, her deathbed | |
In England - this septic isle; in England—Maxwell smiles | |
Chorus | |
Just another English murder, your photo on my wall | |
Just another English murder, it doesn't look like you at all in the dark |
I wait here by the coast, in the company of ghosts | |
I sit and watch the world go by, sometimes I just sit and cry | |
Just another English murder, a poster on the station wall | |
Just another English murder, Britannia gone rotten to the core | |
I carry my guilt like a watch, but one that just won' t stop | |
Doomed by the hands of God, whose giggling won' t stop | |
Chorus | |
By the line she lies dead, beneath a mattress, her deathbed | |
In England this septic isle in England Maxwell smiles | |
Chorus | |
Just another English murder, your photo on my wall | |
Just another English murder, it doesn' t look like you at all in the dark |
