The Rook and the Twisted Hand
While it's true that I hate you a little less each day
My gut instinct was to tear your limbs away
And so, I guess, we're not calling each other friends
The first words you said were like a smack in the jaw
So self important you thought I'd be back for more
And so, I guess, you were disappointed
You my love, you my love, you my love
You are the warden of my keep
A vascular incision couldn't cut out the pain
Don't know what you're moaning for we all felt the same
But you, couldn't just stop at words
They traced the stains, found your twisted tool
Sing a song of sorrow, play at the fool
You're lying to me, you're lying to everyone
You're lying to me, you're lying to everyone
You my love, you my love, you my love
You are the warden of my keep
You my love, you my love, you my love
You are the warden of my keep
My gut instinct was to tear your limbs away
And so, I guess, we're not calling each other friends
The first words you said were like a smack in the jaw
So self important you thought I'd be back for more
And so, I guess, you were disappointed
You my love, you my love, you my love
You are the warden of my keep
A vascular incision couldn't cut out the pain
Don't know what you're moaning for we all felt the same
But you, couldn't just stop at words
They traced the stains, found your twisted tool
Sing a song of sorrow, play at the fool
You're lying to me, you're lying to everyone
You're lying to me, you're lying to everyone
You my love, you my love, you my love
You are the warden of my keep
You my love, you my love, you my love
You are the warden of my keep
