Ivory Daggers Lyrics


Phantom Planet Ivory Daggers

[Verse 1]
I saw the sun go down, it was right on time
I heard the werewolves starting to howl outside
You see the clouds have parted, and in the sky
There is a full moon shining on us tonight

[Chorus]
This is a war cry, that's right
Raise your hands, wave 'em high
Won't fire till I see the whites of your eyes
Now nothing's gonna save you from the ivory daggers
[Verse 2]
And a hundred decibels
From out the mouths of hungry animals
Let's hear it?
Let the furious countdown begin
And on to dark horses and darker horsemen
Are you with me? Are you with me?
Then I guess that you're against me

[Chorus]
It's a war cry, that's right
Raise your hands, wave 'em high
I won't fire till I see the whites of your eyes
Sink two teeth in, damage on the deep end
Nothing's gonna save you from the ivory daggers

[Bridge]
You open me up, tear me to shreds
Something is stuck, stuck in my head
And into my neck, into my skin
Digging so deep, you let me right in
As far as I can get, making your mark
Hitting you hard, right through your heart

[Chorus]
Yeah, this is a war cry, that's right
Raise your hands, wave 'em high
I won't fight till I see the whites of your eyes
Sink two teeth in, damage in the deep end
Nothing's gonna save you from the ivory daggers
No, nothing's gonna save you from the ivory daggers
