lyrics

Your True North

Crossing the lines, blurring the factions
am I yours or are you mine?
But now's no time to get possessive
not while I'm circling your lights

I need to calibrate
your true north is my escape
o you chose my fate
your true north, my firth of Forth
spilling forth from my lips
the ancient meter swells and dips...

Losing the thread, leaving the tramlines
shred my knuckles on your city walls
I shoot to the south of where your heart is
'cause I fear a full dose
I might break or come close
though that's not a bad way to go

I need to calibrate
your true north is my escape
o you chose my fate
your true north, my firth of Forth
spilling forth from my lips...

...Redcoats are coming
without warning
and it won't be long
'til I'm caught, hung and quartered
in that order
and the sound of the fall
the breath in your hall
o the waste of it all
the waste of it all...

I need to calibrate
your true north is my escape
o you chose my fate
your true north, my firth of Forth
spilling forth from my lips
the ancient meter swells and dips...
