The Memory Broker

[Intro]
[Verse]
Iron hinges groan
Marble turns to bone
Moss is choking grace
On a stone cold face
Nineteen twenty-four
Knocking on the door
[Pre-Chorus]
Dried roses in the glass
Watching the shadows pass
I have what you need
Tell me how you bleed
[Chorus]
Give me the taste of wine
Make your memory mine
Softly now, don't scream
Give me back the dream
I am the keeper here
Whisper in my ear
[Post-Chorus]
Trade it for the light
Deep within the night
Trade it for the breath
Dancing with your death
[Verse]
Velvet dress is torn
Quietly I mourn
I brush away the dirt
Tell me where it hurt
Silver in your hair
Static in the air
[Pre-Chorus]
Cracked porcelain glows
Where the hemlock grows
I have what you crave
Deep inside the grave
[Chorus]
Give me the taste of wine
Make your memory mine
Softly now, don't scream
Give me back the dream
I am the keeper here
Whisper in my ear
[Hook]
Bargain with the dead
Everything you said
Bargain with the ghost
I am the perfect host
[Bridge]
Pipe organ starts to swell
Deep inside the well
I want the way he kissed
The things that you have missed
Give me the summer rain
I’ll take away the pain
[Chorus]
Give me the taste of wine
Make your memory mine
Softly now, don't scream
Give me back the dream
I am the keeper here
Whisper in my ear
[Post-Chorus]
Trade it for the light
Deep within the night
Trade it for the breath
Dancing with your death
[Breakdown]
Low sub-bass rumble
Watch the statues crumble
Fuzzed out guitar cry
Underneath the sky
[Chorus]
Give me the taste of wine
Make your memory mine
Softly now, don't scream
Give me back the dream
I am the keeper here
Whisper in my ear
[Outro]
