Tether No Tassel

So long to the good times that I had with you
You pulled a sword from your purse to run me through
Now my heart is bleeding like rain
You hit the bucket of blood that fills my veins

Hello sorrow, I’ve known you before
I’m the hurting soul from a forsaken shore
The spine of the stingray hit’s my behind
Ever since I can remember, life’s been a hinder, oh, oh

Tether to the tassel, prison to the Bastille
Fade to fated, these are related to me

I cling to the faith, it’s the faith I keep
Though the waves you’ve made have gotten so steep
To weep right now would be a crying shame
But for that day I pray to keep me sane
Give me no dagger, hand me no blade
I’ll endure the day so my life will be saved
Ahab’s beckon will bring me a coffin
I’ll reach the sand as fast as I can, oh, oh

Tether to the tassel, prison to the Bastille
Fade to fated, these are related to me

Tether

Tether to the tassel, prison to the Bastille
Fade to fated, these are related to me

Tether to the tassel, prison to the Bastille
Fade to fated, these are related to me
Tether to the tassel, prison to the Bastille
Fade to fated, these are related to me
Fade to fated
Fade to fated
Fade to fated
Fade to fated
