lyrics
I don’t want to see the gates of rome
until they’re ready to be opened up for you
I don’t care how shiny we can get the marble
there are some things dirtier than dirt
there is a monument so white
all the bones stacked side by side
it is smooth to the touch
until you see the lines they form
I don’t want to see the gates of rome
until they’re ready to open up for you
I don’t care how shiny we can get the marble
there are some things dirtier than dirt
every monument we build
leaves a hole to be filled
we can cover it until
it is smooth to the touch
I don’t want to see the gates of rome
until they’re ready to be opened for you too
I don’t care how shiny we can get the marble
there are some things dirtier than dirt
