Marrow Merchants

Verse 1

Greed

Gorging on the marrow

Sucking dry the hollowed bone

Your gold teeth grin

Behind the tinted glass of a limousine

Trophy

Buying up the weather

Selling back the air we breathe

Dirty hands

Shaking other dirty hands

Chorus

Give me more

Give me more

Give me more than I can take

Watch it break

Watch it break

Until the foundations shake

The crown is heavy but the head is hollow

The crown is heavy but the head is hollow

Verse 2

Stagger

Blindly down the hallway

Trip on wires of your own design

Copper wire

Tangled in the hair of a dying breed

Lost

Forgotten in the basement

Searching for a single seed

Iron gates

Rusty hinges screaming out for oil

Chorus

Give me more

Give me more

Give me more than I can take

Watch it break

Watch it break

Until the foundations shake

The crown is heavy but the head is hollow

The crown is heavy but the head is hollow

Bridge

Cut the rope

Burn the bank

Drain the tank

We are starving at the banquet

We are sleeping on the gravel

We are waiting for the gravel to turn to gold

Turn to gold

Turn to gold

Yeah

Guitar Solo

Chorus

Give me more

Give me more

Give me more than I can take

Watch it break

Watch it break

Until the foundations shake

The crown is heavy but the head is hollow

The crown is heavy but the head is hollow

Outro

Hollow

Just a shell

Ring the bell

Down in the dirt

Where it hurts

Yeah

Hollow

Hollow

Hollow
