Princess in Rags (The Cult) |
Lost in the desert of dreams |
Follow the footsteps you know |
Somewhere that you’ve never been |
And maybe you shouldn’t know |
Some wait to betray all our trust |
We struggle to hide our disgust |
Just like a thief they will take |
And every heart they will break |
Just like a princess in rags |
Now you have come down beyond belief |
Lost in the nightmare that you always keep |
Oh, yeah |
Hide your face, close both your eyes |
And hear the words of a dead man tonight |
Some will praise, and some will cry |
He takes their money and they give their life |
He rearranges the thoughts in their head |
But they don’t know what he’s put there instead |
Kiss goodbye all that you know |
No understanding and he won’t let go |
Looking for somewhere to fall |
People not foolish would go |
But on their knees they will crawl |
You’d think that they’d really know |
And when they’re alone on the street |
They talk to strangers they meet |
Telling them stories again |
Leaving out all of the shame |
It can be easy to hurt |
When you think there’s something you must prove |
Who dealt the cards out, 'cause you’re bound to lose |
Oh, yeah |
Hide your face, close both your eyes |
And hear the words of a dead man tonight |
Some will praise, and some will cry |
He takes their money and they give their life |
He rearranges the thoughts in their head |
But they don’t know what he’s put there instead |
Kiss goodbye all that you know |
No understanding and he won’t let go |
Innocence is pushed away |
The queen of hearts will say farewell |
She don’t know she’s gone astray |
But no one’s seen her, who can tell? |
So what’s happened to the place? |
The gun is loaded, what’s the game? |
Someone must have closed the gates |
And called her by some other name |
Hide your face, close both your eyes |
And hear the words of a dead man tonight |
Some will praise, and some will cry |
He takes their money and they give their life |
He rearranges the thoughts in their head |
But they don’t know what he’s put there instead |
Kiss goodbye all that you know |
No understanding and he won’t let go |
Hide your face, close both your eyes |
And hear the words of a dead man tonight |
Some will praise, and some will cry |
He takes their money and they give their life |
He rearranges the thoughts in their head |
But they don’t know what he’s put there instead |
Kiss goodbye all that you know |
No understanding and he won’t let go |
