Pay my shillings to the ferryman, maybe he'd agree
My friends have gone their separate ways what's there left for me
A hundred floors above me lies a lonely tree
It's ancient roots draft recruits and smother all they see 

Verse 2
I'm not surprised you're an optimist
I'm not surprised you'd disagree
But it seems a most unlikely road
And in time I think you'll see

Verse 3
I'm not playing at the table
The dealers deal is rigged
And by the time they find me out
It's they who have been tricked


Chorus
And take me to the dark below
And take me to the well
We'll go back right back to the drawing board
And we'll go right back to hell
And they'll find you in the Isle of Dogs
They'll find you in your cell    
Where hang in there means different things
Depending who you tell
There's no room for the both of us 
There's no room for the both of us farewell

Verse 4           
The guards below are callous,
They're the guards of your decline, 
They're not your friend they're not your foe 
They're just with you all the time

Verse 5              
And they're the noise inside your bedroom dear, 
They're the ticking hand of time, 
The clock that keeps you up at night 
The caustic in your mind.

Verse 6
And the guards below are watching, 
And all their walls have eyes
If you feel above the prison dear 
They'll bring you down to size.

Verse 7
And they're the numbness in your smile dear, the sadness amongst 
men, and they'll bring you right back up for air but they'll bring you down again. 

Chorus
And take me to the dark below
And take me to the well
We'll go back right back to the drawing board
And we'll go right back to hell
And they'll find you in the Isle of Dogs
They'll find you in your cell    
Where hang in there means different things
Depending who you tell
There's no room for the both of us 
There's no room for the both of us farewell


Verse 8
And I'm not the road most travelled
I'm none of that you see
I pay my rent in toil and cents 
They bring no guarantee

Verse 9
And yes it causes trouble 
And if asked you always shine
You hide your cross your scarlett loss
Pretend you're doing fine

Verse 6
And I'm not embarrassed by the mission
I'm not embarrassed by the cut
My prism splits where light permits
But you did not say with what

Chorus
And take me to the dark below
And take me to the well
We'll go back right back to the drawing board
And we'll go right back to hell
And they'll find you in the Isle of Dogs
They'll find you in your cell    
Where hang in there means different things
Depending who you tell
There's no room for the both of us 
There's no room for the both of us farewell

Verse 7
The calendar of the souls dear
The parlance of the angels
I'll send a thousand angels down
To f*ck your expectations

Verse 8
And the boat seems unbalanced
And we're taking in rain
Your life support is screaming dear 
It can not take the strain

Verse 9
And we tiptoe around the subject
Why can't someone say it straight 
May god have mercy on your soul
Your craven heart is late

Chorus
And take me to the dark below
And take me to the well
We'll go back right back to the drawing board
And we'll go right back to hell
And they'll find you in the Isle of Dogs
They'll find you in your cell    
Where hang in there means different things
Depending who you tell
There's no room for the both of us 
There's no room for the both of us farewell
