Poison & Pain
Somewhere dark before the sun comes up
Where the blinds are closed and the doors are shut
I reduce you to the rubble in the bottom of my cup
'Til I cannot tell the poison from the pain
Somewhere, dawn, the stores are closed out by the beach
I could spray paint your name, no one would see
I reduce you to the poison in the bottom of my cup
'Til it washes all my worries out to sea
And my demons, that got so bored of dreamin'
My demons, alcohol and freedom
A King without a Queen
A King without a kingdom
I was so bad on my own
Drawing maps inside my soul to places where nobody goes
Woke up confused, just staring at my telephone
Waiting like I'd ever hear your voice again
I feel that empty low
Sometimes it is so jagged, I don't know what love is for
Alone like I don't know how to survive and insane
'Til I cannot tell the poison from the pain
I used to think that you were me
Pretending every sentence from your mouth was melody
A tune so turbulent that it cracked open every key
'Til everything was broken that I played
Your father stood and cried
On the day your brother married someone that he could rely on
No one could heal his heart, whoever made you cry
So I became the poison and the pain
And my demons, they got so bored of dreamin'
Demons, alcohol and freedom
A King without a Queen
A King without a kingdom
A King without a Queen
A King without a kingdom
Where the blinds are closed and the doors are shut
I reduce you to the rubble in the bottom of my cup
'Til I cannot tell the poison from the pain
Somewhere, dawn, the stores are closed out by the beach
I could spray paint your name, no one would see
I reduce you to the poison in the bottom of my cup
'Til it washes all my worries out to sea
And my demons, that got so bored of dreamin'
My demons, alcohol and freedom
A King without a Queen
A King without a kingdom
I was so bad on my own
Drawing maps inside my soul to places where nobody goes
Woke up confused, just staring at my telephone
Waiting like I'd ever hear your voice again
I feel that empty low
Sometimes it is so jagged, I don't know what love is for
Alone like I don't know how to survive and insane
'Til I cannot tell the poison from the pain
I used to think that you were me
Pretending every sentence from your mouth was melody
A tune so turbulent that it cracked open every key
'Til everything was broken that I played
Your father stood and cried
On the day your brother married someone that he could rely on
No one could heal his heart, whoever made you cry
So I became the poison and the pain
And my demons, they got so bored of dreamin'
Demons, alcohol and freedom
A King without a Queen
A King without a kingdom
A King without a Queen
A King without a kingdom
