Twisting The Knife

A grave for you, a ring for me
Rumble in the jungle
Malice in the palace if you want
If you want
The head that wears the crown
Is oh so heavy
And this prince leaves people
Feeling quite unsteady
On their knees
If you please

Maybe I’m too rich for your blood
Maybe I’m not enough
Maybe my heart’s too big to love
I cast pearls before swine
Assumed you could, would, should be mine
What have I done this time?
What have I done this

Eternal flame, eternal game
Always secret-keeping
Two heartbreaks from leaping in the ring
Like a king
Persephone was a fool compromising
Sometimes hunger leads to consequences buying you some time
While I pine

Maybe I’m too rich for your blood
Maybe I’m not enough
Maybe my heart’s too big to love
I cast pearls before swine
Assumed you could, would, should be mine
What have I done this time?
What have I done?

Oh can we start from the top?
My heart drops, you don’t stop
I’m ready
Twisting the knife
This is love, this is life
I’m ready
Admit that I’m hurt
But your words, they were heard
I’m ready
The party is over
I’m drunk and you’re sober
My ride is here waiting
No more hesitating
The shot’s been blown, I’m all alone
Lost you, so I lost my home
C’est la vie, onto the next
Should I just send one more text?

Maybe I’m too rich for your blood
Maybe I’m not enough
Maybe my heart’s too big to love
Cast pearls before swine
You could, would, should be mine
What have I done this time?
What have I done?
