Abigail Washburn (USA) - Ballad Of Treason lyrics
Your rating:
This kiss is a crime Let's not wast time The cover of night is breaking They even the score We capture five more Make a forbidden offering Our heads are two stakes Lets pull down the gates Declaring freedom Send out our armies Bring death to our colonies Our harmony drowns out the cries of our enemies Climb up to a treetop I'll be on a mountain top Looking for you across the valley Birds pull you higher while the sky is on fire Searching for the dying daylight I need you, I need you, I need you 

Our bodies are pyres Waiting for fire
 The judge and the generals Claim jurisdiction 
The faithful assemble The crowd starts to tremble
 The gavel it rises And begins to fall

 Treason proclaimed Pyres burst into flame
 Two souls ride the sparks Into the blue 

Climb up to a treetop I'll be on a mountain top Looking for you across the valley Birds pull you higher while the sky is on fire Searching for the dying daylight I need you, I need you, I need you 

This world is a shackle Let's shout til it rattles
 Bring down the walls of Jericho Climb up to a treetop I'll be on a mountain top Looking for you across the valley Birds pull you higher while the sky is on fire Searching for the dying daylight I need you, I need you
