I choose to be his confidant
And to keep him from the fire
I choose to be quietly discreet
But that is his desire
I touch with gossamer wings

To be quiet around you
There is so much going on
You could easily
Wake up with a stranger

It's not something that you plan
One night in a world of pain
You finally understand
Not all the king's horses
Not all the king's men
Could put it back together

You said you wouldn't do this for very long
It is so defining
Well it bounces off the wall
And you
When the miracle is happening
High priestess
She's the keeper of the peace
And there's Twice as much... intensify
What people will do
To get... this... high...

It's not something that you plan
One night in a world of pain
You finally understand
Not all the king's horses
Not all the king's men
Could put it back together

And now alone in my room
As it all begins again
Was I so wrong
Why am I always so intense
In this same place I sit
The same place as before
I came all the way here
Just to watch you walk out that door

I didn't ask when you shook your head
I always accepted what you said as the truth
And the truth only
Well, it's not enough that you depend on me
It's not enough that you say you love me
It's not enough to just save face

Because sometimes you just fall from grace
Sometimes you just fall from grace

Maybe I am calmer now
Maybe things are fine
Maybe I made the whole thing up
Maybe it isn't a lie
Maybe the reason I say these things
Is to bring you back alive
Maybe I've fought this long and this hard
Just to make sure you survive
Just to make sure you survive
