Old hope, got stuck in your throat,
Wound it's way round your neck
And caused you to choke
Old hope, made of rope,
That held you tight as the chair legs broke

When they found you hanging in the wood,
You said at least now I don't have to kind nor good
I'll be cruel and I'll be obscene,
Tear out my tongue,
'Cause I've been redeemed

When they found you hanging in the wood,
You said at least now I don't have to be kind nor good
I'll be cruel and I'll be obscene,
Tear out my tongue,
'Cause I've been redeemed

Save my blushes for the grave,
No shy glance, no coy restraint,
And I won't hang my head,
And I won't repent,
Won't face the wall and count to ten

5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10

Well they tore you down
And they tore out your tongue,
And they made you kneel
For all the things that you'd done
But you wouldn't cry,
You wouldn't beg,
You just screamed
And tore out your teeth instead

And when they found you hangin in the woods,
You said at least now I don't have to be kind nor good
I'll be cruel and I'll be obscene
Tear out my tongue,
I've been redeemed
