My Kingdom (John Peel session) Songtext
von Echo & the Bunnymen

I talk without change and the mystery thickens
There′s blood on my gate and you urge me to listen
There's women and wolves we′ll all end up in prison
Women and wolves we'll all end up in prison

Burn your skin off and climb the rooftops
Your will be done
Bite the nose off and make the most of
Your king, kingdom, kingdom, kingdom

You kill when you talk and the enemy weakens
Your words start to walk when you're not even speaking
If my heart is at war, its soldiers are bleeding
If my heart is at war, its soldiers are bleeding

Burn your skin off and climb the rooftops
Your will be done
Bite the nose off and make the most of
Your king, kingdom, kingdom, kingdom


I talk without change and the mystery thickens
There′s blood on my gate and you urge me to listen
There′s women and wolves we'll all end up in prison
Women and wolves we′ll all end up in prison

Burn your skin off and climb the rooftops
Your will be done
Bite the nose off and make the most of
Your king, kingdom, kingdom, kingdom

Burn your skin off and climb the rooftops
Your will be done
Bite the nose off and make the most of
Your king, kingdom, kingdom, kingdom

I strip the cloth that keeps you
I rip the bones that save you
I read between the lines person
And your death is well overdue
Ten of many
Ten of many
I read between the lines person
And your death is well overdue
Ten of many
Ten of many


Ten of many
Ten of many
I read between the lines person
And your death is well overdue
