bishop allen - skeleton key lyrics

Loading...

you were the first in the ranks of the pharaoh’s army
but the oppressor never really had your sympathy
late at night i would slip in the gates
you would show me round the gardens of his country estate
i would wait, i would wait, you would open every door for me
with your skeleton key

you were the first in the line of the devil’s sentries
but you didn’t take pleasure in the men that he was measuring
you would copy all his secrets for me
you would leave them in the hollow of the sycamore tree
and to think, and to think that you really could have set us all free
with your skeleton key

you were the first in the line of the new succession
but i knew from your confession that you never wanted to succeed
you said you’d turn and tear the palaces down
in the fires that raged, you would throw in the crown
and the gates, let the gates from their hinges swing
with your skeleton key

you promised me that every door was gonna open
you promised me that every door was gonna open
you promised me that every door was gonna open
you promised me that every door was gonna open
you promised me that every door was gonna open
you promised me that every door was gonna open
