Red Thumb Lyrics

Do You remember the day we shot Your dove?
How it bled on the sidewalk until its strength was gone.
How it flapped its frantic wings under the setting sun?
It would no longer sing in the trees that we cut down

I want to fly away.

Gatekeeper, why did you let us in?
You know we're destroyers!
Gardener, why did you let us in?
When we are red-handed!

There was that day were we chased Your fox through the woods
It ran down its hole, so decide that smoke it out we would.
It came up coughing up blood at the base of its hole.
You were crying like an animal.

I want to fly away.

Gatekeeper, why did you let us in?
You know we're destroyers!
Gardener, why did you let us in?
When we are red-handed!

We are burning down all that you have sown!
We are trying to escape your royal thrown!
I will not stand the test of time, Oh G-D come down!
I will not stand the test of time, G-D come down!

I want to fly away.

Gatekeeper, why did you let us in?
You know we're destroyers!
Gardener, why did you let us in?
When we are red-handed!
