Oh, Isabella

Lyrics for Oh, Isabella

Ratted out in hades Forced to return To rockville With nothing but a rucksack Hard lesson learned Foul council of leeches Want silence and Bedlam Take rebute And a dagger to the bite Then suck out the venom Oh Isabella Your ship's run aground Kneel at the sword Scream at the clouds Oh Isabella There's smoke on the wind Terror and fever Have taken your men Running on the tightrobe Woven by spider While the canyon Teeming with shoppers Grows wider and wider What demon's possessing The clock and the compass Surrender Run headlong to the void The reptile's among us Oh Isabella Your ship's run aground Kneel at the sword Scream at the clouds Oh Isabella There's smoke on the wind Terror and fever Have taken your men Chained to the ox cart With a chest full of arrows The villages Are burning with cedar By bag and by barrow Scrub brush from the wasteland Snake in a tree Remember When they throw the torches in Breathe, breathe, breathe Oh Isabella Your ship's run aground Kneel at the sword Scream at the clouds Oh Isabella There's smoke on the wind Terror and fever Have taken your men
