We live in the service of the King
Almighty in control of everything
As the Queen decides who lives and dies, tonight we will sing
Love was never more than simple
, Cx3
::whistle::
easiest thing
Our mission is to slay the Sacred Beast
Who has come to claim our innocence, at least
And although the gang before us lived to die, as his feast
We'll be riding high and swinging
, Cx3
::whistle::
til we're deceased
Bridge
First of all, we know that we are dying for our lives
Wanting for naught, and no surprise
So there will need to be a war for love
A fight in spite of Death above
Biting the hand that feeds its own demise
We thought we had found a separate peace
We thought all our pain had finally been released
But as long as we're alive, we'll never rest in one piece
Meanwhile they'll(?) join in whistling
, Cx3
::whistle::
Worst of all it knows its only truth is made of lies
Wanting for aught and ever wise
So there will need to be a compromise
Easier to close our eyes
Seeing the other sides of our disguise
We thought love was only nice or mean
Perhaps it's something vaguely in between
So while neighbors fight to paint their yards the best shades of green
We'll be in the garden growing
