lyrics

MAGINOT LINE

Take the red out my face
Make my eyes both the same
Loosen my tongue just enough
So I can sing in these chains
Sing in these chains, again

We'll sweep the ticker tape thats left from the parade
Into the gutter like glitter, it won't leave a trace
And we can sing in these chains, again

Because there's still a little bit
Still a little bitter taste in our mouths,
Yeah theres still a little bit, still a little bitter taste in our mouths

So you hold your breath, and I'll hold mine
And hand in hand weíll waltz the Maginot Line

Take down your defences, move close to the flame
Suck out the air until darkness is all that remains
And we'll sing in these chains again

So you hold your breath, and iíll hold mine
And hand in hand weíll waltz the Maginot Line
