I choose to be his confidant
    And to keep him from the fire...
    I choose to be quietly discreet...
    If that is his desire...
    I touch with gossamer wings
    To be quiet around you...
    There is so much going on...
    You could easily...

    Wake up with a stranger...
    It's not something that you plan...
    One night in a world of pain...
    And you finally understand..
    Not all the king's horses...
    Not all the king's men...
    Could put it back together...

    You said you wouldn't do this for very long...
    Tje applause from it all...
    It is so defining...
    Well it bounces off the wall...
    At you...
    When the miracle is happening...
    High priestess...
    She's the keeper of the peace...
    In this...
    Twice as much... intensified...
    What ppl will do...
    To get... this... high...

    It's not something that you plan...
    One night in a world of pain...
    And you finally understand...
    Not all the king's horses...
    Not all the king's men...
    Could put it back together...

    And now alone in my room
    As it all begins again...
    Was I so wrong...
    Why am I always so intense...
    In this same place I sit...
    The same place as before...
    Well I came all the way here
    Just to watch you walk out that door...

    I didn't ask when you shook your head
    I always accepted what you said as the truth...
    And the truth only...
    Well, it's not enough that you depend on me...
    And it's not enough that you say you love me...
    It's not enough to just save face...

    Because sometimes...
    You just fall from grace...
    Sometimes...
    You just fall from grace...

    Maybe I am calmer now...
    Maybe things are fine...
    Maybe I made the whole thing up...
    Maybe it isn't a lie...
    Maybe the reason I say these things...
    Is to bring you back alive...
    Maybe I fought this long and this hard...
   Just to make sure you survive...
    Just to make sure you survive...
