Guess I was wrong
It played it out for too long
Slipped through my fingers
Now it’s out of my control
Thought I wanted this
And I payed for it
Now the consequences linger
Corruption in my soul [And I…]
I messed it up
Ran out of luck
Played all the wrong cards
Why I’d make it so hard
My time is up
Pour another cup
Pursued a vision that I had
And now I’m golden clad
I wanted everything
The cravings of a king
Now I’m a slave to my own desires
One wish was paid
Now I’m afraid
Of myself and my gilded powers
I laid the seeds of my own disaster
I screwed it up, now I’m drowning faster
And I’d know that my greed
Was unnecessary
But I seized the opportunity
Covered in gold
Though I was told
“Be careful what you wish for” [Yet I…]
Was obsessed
So I made a mess
Do I even have the tools to fix what I have broken?
I messed it up
Forever stuck
Said all the wrong words
Now I’m sinkin’ farther
My time is up
Body’s corrupt
Wanted a throne so bad
And now I’m golden clad
[Golden, I wanted everything golden…
[Golden, I wanted everything golden…
[Golden, I wanted everything golden…
I wanted everything
The cravings of a king
Now I’m a slave to my own desires
One wish was paid
Now I’m betrayed
By myself and my gilded powers
I laid the seeds of my own disaster
It’s all my fault, now I’m sinking faster
And I’d know that my greed
Was unnecessary
But I seized the opportunity
