the watchmen on the wall
trip and fall and crack like glass
and it was my choice
to throw them away or
glue them up for another day
and i let them go, i went unguarded
you hadn’t crossed my border in months
i thought i was through with the enemy
but you weren’t through with me
so maybe it’s my fault
you’re climbing the walls
maybe it’s my fault
my kindom will fall
maybe i brought it all to an end
maybe i’m just glad to see you again
deja vu, i hear the warcry
i smile holds a knife in your teeth
i bar the door and raise the gate
a weak attempt to delay my fate
but you are inside, i have nowhere to hide
drag me out to swear allegience
you’ve taken my castle, you’ve taken my pride
i have to call you queen
