Verse
[Knights in shining armor
Shed their plate and show their scales
Dragons robbing dragons of their damsels
Silly males, and their games...
Cut them down, and you'll see they're all the same
Yet, what better way to waste my time than]
Chorus
[Play your trophy for a while
the apple in your eyes
the sparkle in your smile
full of teeth, sharp as ice
I'll be your diamond in the rough
the stone implies 'forever'
but eternity, so much
and am I worth it? Never...]
Verse
[Castles in the distance
Or a cave, at second glance?
Arms, I trade for talons
Disillusioned from this trance, I am ashamed
Deep within, you know you're all the same
Yet, who better to waste my time upon than you]
Chorus
[Your jewel of the Nile
the apple in your eyes
the sparkle in your smile
full of teeth, sharp as ice
I'll be that diamond in the rough
and as such, I'll cry,"Forever!"
throughout dreams of shedding cuffs
return your freedom? Never...]
Bridge?
[Sought to end my agony
you thought you'd don your steel
riding out to meet the dawn
Adorned in your hypocrisies
you'd have me see as steel
What am I, if not your latest pawn?]
Finale
[And who remains to rescue me from you, now
A dying breed, those meant to rescue me from you, now...] |
