| My heart’s spent on your conscience
|
| It’s in debt but I’m not
|
| I’m always more than honest
|
| It hurts more than I want
|
| I’m tearin' through the conflict
|
| I’m sick of all the bullshit
|
| I can’t breathe through the poison
|
| To cleanse me of your haunting
|
| Oooh
|
| I never meant to give up my innocence
|
| Oooh
|
| Patience runs deep in my veins and I drown in it
|
| Cause you gave me an empire
|
| You made me your only queen
|
| I didn’t know that my throne was built on guilt and fantasy
|
| You gave me an empire
|
| You already knew you’d leave
|
| I watched it all as you burned down these walls
|
| The ashes fall, like snow they bury me
|
| I gave you someone empty
|
| And scraped everything out
|
| Kept all of my insides
|
| And I left you with the doubt
|
| I won’t give you the light that you’re swearing that you need
|
| I’m tryin' to contain it so I’m here still when you leave
|
| Oooh
|
| You never meant to give up indifference
|
| Oooh
|
| Your pulse runs deep in my veins and I drown in it
|
| Cause you gave me an empire
|
| You made me your only queen
|
| I didn’t know that my throne was built on guilt and fantasy
|
| You gave me an empire (gave me an empire)
|
| You already knew you’d leave
|
| I watched it all as you burned down these walls
|
| The ashes fall, like snow they bury me
|
| You bury me
|
| In the madness of my heart
|
| You gave me an empire
|
| You made me your only queen
|
| I didn’t know that my throne was built on guilt and fantasy
|
| You gave me an empire (you gave me it all)
|
| That you already knew you’d leave
|
| I watched it all as you burned down these walls
|
| The ashes fall, like snow they bury me |
