Armies Of The Dawn ft. Mary Lattimore Lyrics

Rough hands silently wake

Armies of the dawn

On the twilight train

Ride to the docks

And the towers in droves

Carrying a load

Name without a name

While the smoke talkers

Droppers of names

High born sons

With no skin in the game

Finish their night

On a rooftop glow

They don't have a load

We are not the same

Take the city as a liar

Doesn't care about the truth

Bring the beast to the doorstep

Hide your dreams like troops

He's a jackal not a boss

Put your week in a noose

Gotta hold him accountable

Comin home to roost

Coming home to roost

5am shift white knuckle grip

Daddy was raised

Neath the throgsneck bridge

I could count myself

In the ranks of them

But I want out and Im climbing

I preyed with the vultures

The soul they steal

Dragged a corpse

In the dust of my wheels

Feast on a lyre

With a carrion call

Shout my name

From the city walls

Take the city as a liar

Doesn't care about the truth

Bring the beast to the doorstep

Hide your dreams like troops

He's a jackal not a boss

He'll put your week in a noose

Gotta hold him accountable

Coming home to roost

Coming home to roost
