Kings & Queens

(album: Your Highness - 2021)

Rays of something better
I know will shine here later
Give me turns but no compensation for the worst
I arise, fortified, in my own victory
Much of this just went so south
But that's the spirit
All this thrive for better
You will remember later
Choose your pawns and move it on
The chase is on

Kings and queens we dream we will become
So it seems we hear the checkmate a lot
Every single move so wrong
Castles made of sand, they wash ashore

Horses fall and bishops silence
Not exactly the best equivalence
Keep your rooks, send your knights
I know nothing of what's in sight
Seal my lips, I'm out of time
Leave no choice for my resign

Kings and queens we dream we will become
So it seems we hear the checkmate a lot
Every single move so wrong
Castles made of sand, they wash ashore

Take this missing soul to lost and found
And burn the only bridge down into the ground

Heartbroken, my queen
Rematch with me
Heartbroken, my queen
Rematch with me
Heartbroken, my queen
At least life got me wined and dined
Before it got me fucked like this
Broken, my dreams
Rematch with me

Kings and queens we dream we will become
So it seems we hear the checkmate a lot
Every single move so wrong
Castles made of sand, they wash ashore
Kings and queens we've become
No matter how far, how long
Everything we've built now gone
Castles made of sand, they've washed ashore
