Kingdom

Shallow pitfalls of sadness
Catch the footfalls of followers we seek
In the safety of houses
We've sowed more than we'll reap

Kingdom it falls with the madness
As we fight for the money we can't keep
In our race for survival
We borrowed more than needed

We were so distracted
On the edge
We laughed about falling through

You said I should have opened my eyes
I was terrified of what I might find
You said I should have opened my eyes
I was terrified of what I might find

Aching from all of the strictures we keep
From the company whose kitchens we admire
We're given no rest
We're allowed no peace of mind

We were so distracted
On the edge
Slowly we swallowed our wine

You said I should have opened my eyes
I was terrified of what I might find
You said I should have opened my eyes
I was terrified of what I might find

I never intended to pull the two of us
Into this divide
Now bitter and fractured we divvy up the loss
And bury our lies

You said I should have opened my eyes
I was terrified of what I might find
You said I should have opened my eyes
I was terrified of what I might find
