King

(album: Geode - 2020)

Is what it is inside the king's court acting like a fool to get the upper hand
Was everything from an advisor to a wizard and I even joined the royal band
I got the poison in my right boot pocket waiting for an opportunity
One day I found his royal highness sigh in silence and he turned around and looked at me

"So now you..."
"I see everything, I see I see everything..."
"...see?"
"We don't need luck, we don't need luck, luck's-"
"So now you..."

Try not to panic automatically, I juggle for the king as I had done before
He interrupted, said "I know your game, I've been observing you since days of yore"

"So now you..."
"You'll see everything, I see I see everything..."
"So happy to..."
"We don't need luck, we don't need luck, luck's-"
"How did he know..."

I held my smile and grabbed the vial, but he grabbed my arm, suddenly time stood still
Out in the chaos, found a way outside his grip and pulled the vial out so I could kill
The king collapsed and with his last breath said "I bear you no ill will"

"You'll see everything, I see I see everything...
We don't need luck, we don't need luck, luck's-"

"You'll see everything, I see I see everything...
We don't need luck, we don't need luck, luck's-"
"How did he know..."
