The Abbey

Someone's here to take us from the abbey
Bloody cheeks and pearls around my neck
somewhere in the morning, they'll forget we're here

Precious cargo running in the alley
Mother Mary snitched on me again
Promise I'll protect you every chance I get

All my life I was alive
I'm sorry
Half a life was taken right before my pretty eyes
And all the while
I fly

I remember sirens in the back seat
Heartbeat like the railroad in my chest
Who am I to jump and who am I to stay here
Stay here
Diamonds hidden deep down in the valley
I remember angels in my ear
Telling me I'll make it off the train this year

All my life I was alive
I'm sorry
Half a life was taken right before my pretty eyes
And all the while
I fly
