Black Elevator-Black Dresses (Live)
There's no using the stairs tonight
Black box will take you right
Many floors down where the earth is fire and molten
And the bellman tips his hat
you're trying not to notice that
his tail is long, his legs are made of wood
And no one here knows your name
and you won't be coming home
You're going down in a black elevator
Oh, You'll try to drink the water
Oh, the water wouldn't save you
You're going down in the black elevator
And you're rowing up that river tonight
And you hear the boxcar shake
and you know how long it takes
for the fruit to rot
it turned all black and rotten
And the years all bend together
and the gears all blend together
and the cables break
you're sinking to the ground
No one here knows your name
and you won't be coming home
You're going down in a black elevator
You try to drink the water
oh, the water wouldn't save you
You're going down in the black elevator
And you're rowing up that river tonight
And I know a better place
It's so much further down
You'll ever be mine in there
With a hammer coming down
And ever you work the earth
and your hands will turn to stone
No one here knows your name
and you won't be coming home
You're going down in a black elevator
You try to drink the water
Oh, the water wouldn't save you
You're going down in the black elevator
And you're rowing up that river tonight
I said you're rowing up that river tonight
Black box will take you right
Many floors down where the earth is fire and molten
And the bellman tips his hat
you're trying not to notice that
his tail is long, his legs are made of wood
And no one here knows your name
and you won't be coming home
You're going down in a black elevator
Oh, You'll try to drink the water
Oh, the water wouldn't save you
You're going down in the black elevator
And you're rowing up that river tonight
And you hear the boxcar shake
and you know how long it takes
for the fruit to rot
it turned all black and rotten
And the years all bend together
and the gears all blend together
and the cables break
you're sinking to the ground
No one here knows your name
and you won't be coming home
You're going down in a black elevator
You try to drink the water
oh, the water wouldn't save you
You're going down in the black elevator
And you're rowing up that river tonight
And I know a better place
It's so much further down
You'll ever be mine in there
With a hammer coming down
And ever you work the earth
and your hands will turn to stone
No one here knows your name
and you won't be coming home
You're going down in a black elevator
You try to drink the water
Oh, the water wouldn't save you
You're going down in the black elevator
And you're rowing up that river tonight
I said you're rowing up that river tonight
