lyrics

Found you living like a king
with all the shit that you stole
Hearts and jewels the market proved
were worth their weight in gold

Years went by
you found yourself
without a throne
It used to be
that fools like me
wouldn’t leave you alone

[Chorus]
Little did you know
I was born with this crown
Embedded in my head were the words
from a coward’s mouth
Little did you know
I was born with this crown
The taste on my lips are all I’ll leave you with
at this bar on the edge of town

I try not to remember your name
I try not to remember when
I made you a promise
that I couldn’t keep
but that can’t matter now

Because there’s no one to come home to
Whether or not you believe that’s true
The lights are off
The doors are locked
so go back to your home

Cities like this smoke out the best
So hold your breath
And get some rest
Lovers like us
we don’t ask twice
We keep our footsteps light
and lips shut tight
There’s no point in talking it through
You’ll never know how long I’ll be gone
It’s too late to say “I’m sorry”
But remember when I leave your bed
You’ll never know how long I’ll be gone

[Chorus]
