woman of your dreams
Tell me, all my time was enough
I've been prophesied to owe you my bone and blood
You can tell me I'm a diamond in the rough
Your fortune is the affliction I've been rooting for
But it all fades away
Lost to the gilded mayhem days
Precautious in good faith
I'll take another run at my grave
"Eager to please but could never be pleased"
Oh honey, don't you say it like that
Take the fall for me, I'm the woman of your dreams
Pull the string, I'll tell you I'm sorry for being like that
Half past six, I'm a danger to your wishes
I've stolen all the pennies you've tossed
It was a gold mine trick, tied a knot to the cliff
Now you'll be falling forever in the dark
Tempted to salt every wound I knew
To remind me of these indelible riots
Now the coffin has been nailed shut
I've deemed a traitor in my own kingdom
"Eager to please, but I'll never be pleased"
Oh honey, don't you leave me like that
Take the fall for me, I'm the woman of your dreams
Pull the string and I'll tell you how I'm sorry for that
The words of a prophet echo
Through the unpatched cracks in my walls
She prophesied my end and
I walked into it with open arms
The ghost of my ship sailing
Haunting oceans, high tide
My blood oath running thinner
Poisoning everyone's wine
You can have this soul for nothing
Just tell me you'll be forever wanting
Persistence is temptation
Making all the wrong moves right
"You're so eager to please, you could never be pleased
Your innocence disappears like the Cheshire cat"
Take the fall for me, I'm the woman of your dreams
Pull the string, I'll tell you how sorry I am for that.
