Текст песни Mother Of Pearl

It was a glorious day for a hanging
The villagers gathered around
Didn't matter that I was not guilty
And the weapon was never found

You could see the cold ice in their gazes
Blood was the main entree
And the vampires just shook in their places
Waiting for the hangman to say:

Ma'am, you've been found responsible
For the shooting death of that pretty girl
The one who worked at the general store
Who everyone knew as the mother of Pearl
Pearl has no mother, and that is a crime
And so you must hang on this line.

I tried one more time to convince them
But my words fell like fire on ice
There was no use in begging for mercy

Someone would pay the price

So I closed both my eyes and remembered
The happiest thing I could find
The first thing to go is your breathing
The last thing to go is your mind.

And the chanting grew louder and louder
And then I began to pray
And when I had almost forgave them
I heard them all start to say:

Ma'am, you've been found responsible
For the shooting death of that pretty girl
The one who worked at the general store
Who everyone knew as the mother of Pearl
Pearl has no mother, and that is a crime
And so you must hang on this line.

Pearl has no mother, and that is a crime
And so I hung on the line.
