Lyrics
Albatross
You can run and you can walk,
You can even talk the talk,
But at sunset, you?re still poison
You can pull any face you want
Wash you hands in a holy, holy font
But at sunset, you?re still poison
Oh it?s so delicious to see you, When all you wanted to do was hide
Oh it?s so delicious to see you, I see your albatross,
I see you named him pride
Black-toothed and fairy-tailed,
I imagined you?d have that look of midnight
By candlelight
But what we have is another story
Full of heroes and foreign glory
A battlefield where you won?t fight
Oh it?s so delicious to see you, When all you wanted to do was hide
Oh it?s so delicious to see you, I see your albatross,
I see you named him pride
You can run and you can walk,
You can even talk the talk,
But at sunset, you?re still poison
