"Goliath" lyrics - ARCHITECTS

[Intro: Sam Carter]
Oh

[Verse 1: Sam Carter]
Don't say we're better off dead, soon we could be in remission
I said: "It's not enough"
They told me: "It'll be fine, happiness isn't a crime, son"
So pick your guts from the floor

[Pre-Chorus: Sam Carter]
We'll all be hanging a hero
Praying for someone to save us
Goliath says I oughta let it go

[Chorus: Sam Carter]
Nobody's proving me wrong
They're all singing hallelujah
Keep two eyes open
'Cause jackals live by the candlelight

[Verse 2: Sam Carter]
We've got a mountain to climb
But I ain't got the permission
They wanna call my bluff
They said you're crossing the line, I said it takes one to know one

[Interlude: Sam Carter]
Oh, please God be merciful
'Cause they know not what they do

[Pre-Chorus: Sam Carter]
We should be begging for more
We'll all be hanging a hero
Praying for someone to save us
Goliath says I oughta let it go

[Chorus: Sam Carter]
Nobody's proving me wrong
They're all singing hallelujah
Keep two eyes open
'Cause jackals live by the candlelight
Bury your head in the sand
Soon you'll be feeling the fangs
So sleep with two eyes open
'Cause jackals live by the candlelight

[Bridge: Simon Neil]
Long live the king that's not listening
No time for rats in the gutter
Snakes coiling, but we're signalling
Screaming at one another
Long live the king that's not listening
No time for rats in the gutter
Snakes coiling, but we're signalling
Screaming at one another

[Breakdown: Simon Neil]
Smoke 'em out and set a fire in the hive
They wouldn't break their stride if we were burning alive
Burning alive

[Interlude: Sam Carter]
'Cause jackals live by the candlelight
They live by the candlelight

[Chorus: Sam Carter]
Nobody's proving me wrong
They're all singing hallelujah
Keep two eyes open
'Cause jackals live by the candlelight
Bury your head in the sand
Soon you'll be feeling the fangs
So sleep with two eyes open
'Cause jackals live by the candlelight
