The Protomen - Give Us the Rope lyrics
[The Protomen - Give Us the Rope lyrics]
Escorted Light to the
Door of the courtroom and out into the mob
Give us the doctor! Give us the rope!
Light was shuffled through the crowd
And into an awaiting car
Give us his hands! Give us his feet!
Give us the doctor! Give us the rope!
The car maneuvered slowly through
The sea of people
Give us a grave! Give us a shovel!
Give us a marker!
Give us the doctor! Give us the rope!
Give us the doctor! Give us the rope!
Light and his police escort slowly moved
South through the streets of the
City the commotion of the crowd finally
Faded in the distance with
Every man, woman and child at the courthouse
The streets they traveled were
Empty and deserted knowing that the
Crowd would surely be following
They accelerated rapidly towards the
Old train station light's
Only chance was to get out of town
The station was oddly quiet vacant
In the distance, however
He could hear the crowd advancing
Following a crushing fear overcame
His crippling apathy he quickly stepped
From the platform to
The waiting train it was completely
Empty the doors shut and
The engine hissed and pulled
Away from the station
Light looked across the skyline to
The tower he'd helped create
His gaze climbed to the top
And stopped at the
Giant screen albert's face was screaming
At the crowd whipping
Them into a frenzy this was his city now
Light was gone his name destroyed
His work stolen his love murdered
But the city the city was alive
