lyrics

I've got a way! Two tickets and a bold proposition. I've got a way, and a beautiful lady that’s waiting. She's at the edge of the city- where the trees are silent and the roads are cold. She's at the edge of the city, where the women are so tired and the men have grown old. But not her - she's got the burden of her beauty. Oh not her - and I can tell we're getting close!

Some, oh they say, that you are better off to stay watching them safely from a distance. In shadows plans are spun away. So come and play, you'll let your guard down anyway. Though their words are never empty, they're always sure to lead you astray.

Heavy footed fools breaking the branches on the ground. Taking for granted the precious and the delicate. In perfect hindsight blinded by a passive disposition. Take a step, you take a life, take me for her. Husband for wife.

I've got a way, to bury the thief in his den. I've got a way, introducing monster to man. At the edge of the city, where the favor is returned with an echo and a fall! At the edge of the city…where fortune will not favor the mighty or the small! But not us! We have the burden of the lonely! Oh not us! Because they always come around again...

Most are spiders for revenge. Like the spiders that wait patient in webs. Like the spiders that catch innocent eyes. Like the spiders that tell terrible lies. They're begging to go home, before they watch themselves disappear…
