Naked portraits line the walls
of a castle streaked in gold
chambers lead to corridors-
a puzzle master and his son.
Its nice to see the day
will greet you
Grace us with your presence
and line the road with silver.
I'd beg for you to stay
but I havent the time
or the patience
to hold myself to you
but hold your words against me
and lets turn this car around
So I pull this card
from up my sleeve
to show you I'm a cheater
and the slave that hides inside of me
could ask for nothing sweeter
Then pure mercy on my doorstep
and blood upon the handle
the locksmith said he'd take you home
-said you'd never be alone
tonight
and I'll streak these walls with color
and paint the roses white
give the birds a message
and send them to the night
lock the cages empty,
and push them all aside
Theres nothing left inside of me
nothing left to hide
So I pull this card
from up my sleeve
to show you I'm a cheater
and the slave that hides inside of me
could ask for nothing sweeter
Then pure mercy on my doorstep
and blood upon the handle
the locksmith said he'd take you home
-said you'd never be alone
tonight
please need me
