I grew patient pushing on
Im not wrong to second guess
My hairs a mess
My shirts undone
I lose my balance and
Stumble thru the door to match your gaze
Of queens and palaces
I see war residing on your face
If it dont kill u im amazed
Ur nothing more than flesh and bone
I draw the sigil
Let it sit
I sacrifice your weight in gold
And draw the peasant ‘crossed a board
And stake the witness if they speak
And what u can't afford
Is to tell the widow that her husbands weak
The chapel been built outta drywall and gin
So the princess smiles when the wolves comе in
Everyone left but thе candle burns
And the curtain closes
And youre left with
No words-
Then the curtain rises
Audience cheers and the lights are blinding
Incense smells like gasoline
And they shout “encore!” at tragedy
I know you’ve prayed to mirrors
Confess into a bucket while the wolves have held ur hair
The queen will never kneel in public
Only stand tall
It really helps her sell the spell
Sigil in the script, every line rehearsed
Sign it with a symbol, let the oath decay
Never heard an actress is over worked
And they get much more for what they never say
If you’ve survived id be amazed-
Stumbled thru the door to match your gaze
Queens and palaces
I see war residing on your face
