[verse, clean slow vocals, sparse guitar]

Have you felt it
that particular night
Work is over
lanterns burning low tonight

Long table set
bread passed hand to hand
Wine in the cup
no one asks where we stand

Brothers, colleagues
call us what you will
Laughter from the far end
warm and standing still

Tired eyes
tired hands
but no one goes
One more cup
one more song
the evening slows

[pre-chorus, guitars tighten, double kick enters]

Someone here
marked for silver
Someone here
A willing killer

[chorus, full band, clean and harsh vocals layered]

Faces worn but all of them smile
Tired eyes that glow for a while
They seem so happy
so happy
that they’re smiling

Faces worn but all of them
SMILE
Tired eyes that glow for a while
They seem so happy
so happy
that they’re smiling

[verse, half-time groove, eerie clean vocals]

He lifts his cup and speaks
soft to them all
“Drink of this
remember me when I fall”

“This is my body”
still no one understands
No one hears
the shaking in his hands

[pre-chorus, harsh vocals enter]

Someone here
marked for silver
Someone here
A willing killer

[chorus, bigger second repeat]

Faces worn but all of them smile
Tired eyes that glow for a while
They seem so happy
so happy
that they’re smiling

Faces worn but all of them
SMILE
Tired eyes that glow for a while
They seem so happy
so happy
that they’re smiling

[bridge, sudden silence, single clean vocal]

He sets his cup down
Looks at every face

The smiling stops

“One of you —
here at this table —
breaking this bread —
Will hand me over
and wish me dead”

[bridge, explosive harsh vocals]

ONE WILL SELL
ONE WILL LIE
ONE WILL KISS
THE SON GOODBYE

[breakdown, crushing half-time dissonance]

THIRTY PIECES
THIRTY PIECES
THIRTY PIECES

[final chorus, slower, darker, strings and ambient guitars]

Faces worn but all of them smile
Tired eyes that glow for a while
They seemed so happy
so happy
that they were smiling

Faces worn but all of them
SMILE
Tired eyes now dead for a while
He seemed so happy
so fucking happy
to betray him

[outro, solo clean guitar, distant ambience]
