You were my crown jewel But you played me like a fool You were my crown jewel But you play me like a fool
. . .
I used to look at your smile And think I'm gonna stay awhile Move into our very own house Work through all of our trials
But now it seems that's all we share Souls that never touch, never paired Two desperate suns, separate glows Arms in display, like an old gun show
Except when yours lays on mine It doesn't hurt me, it makes me feel fine But it makes me feel uneasy at the same time Lying on finger tips, lie you and I
I want to inhale your love And I want to forgive your hate But whenever I open my mouth You feel the need to retaliate
Wait, this isn't how it's supposed to be If I think about flying, you won't be waiting on me I'm accumulating miles so rapidly I'm going to break down, just wait and see
I'm trying to find a way to fill in the space Between your heart and mine, but it's been a waste Because you get mad again until you red in the face And then I stop and try to switch up the pace
I know at this time It's like we're having a race Me going towards you You facing away
The conditions under which Our love was built Was lust mixed with lies Six joker cards were dealt
I try to hide and conceal how I feel But you can always tell when it's not real I question why I love you still Thoughts in my mind, willing me to be killed
And if my blood gets spilled, Will you really be there?
Or will you be holding the gun, Standing in underwear?
I'm only asking Because of the look in your eye No emotions to show The darkness has reprised
It's ultimate role In concealing our light What we used to hold A tiny bit of shine
Because you truly believe I need you And to an extent this is truth
But the extent is marginal, proof I'll love you, but I'll leave you too
Suppose we reap seeds we've sown Too many broken hearts in our wake
Alone
Alone
Suppose we reap seeds we've sown Too many broken hearts in our wake
Alone
Alone

You were my crown jewel But you played me like a fool You were my crown jewel But you play me like a fool
