It's easy to sit on a throne
      and declare yourself humble
      without any sense of your own irony
To wear your causes like blood diamonds
      and live in secret hell
It's easy to construct a mask
      stolen pieces from the innocence you covet
A thin cloak, lace and rose gold
      fit for a tyrant
