Did I say something wrong?
Tell me what it was
Cause it remains a mystery to me
I'll try to be strong
I know life will go on, anyway
But the minute that you're gone
And I've been on my own
Raise the bottle
C'mon and raise your bottle now
And drink a toast to me
She wears a cloak
Weathers the storm
It gets her through another day
But I wear my heart
Out on my sleeve
So you can better see it bleed
So I said, "Can we talk?"
She said, "the writings on the wall"
I guess that spells out misery for me
So I tried to make the first move
And tried to tell the truth
Well, in a way
But the minute that she's gone
And I've been on my own
Raise the bottle
C'mon and raise your bottle now
And drink a toast to me
Cause I've been on the bottom
I've been on the bottom and making the most
It's great to be free
Well I can still see her face
Feel her warmest embrace
Of all the dreams to get me by
Now don't you cry
Did I say something wrong?
All the kings
Right here before your eyes
Before you find
Another tyrant to mold right after me
Time after time
As you try to find one to sell me out
You won't find loose ends
As I slip through the night
And you believe all that I say
I awake to the daylight
To find you bowing down at my feet
All the kings' horses all the kings' men
Long live the king
All the kings' horses all the kings' men
In trust like family
All the kings' horses all the kings' men
Long live the king
All the kings' horses all the kings' men
Let lust be the enemy
I'm all that you despise
Throughout your time
History will repeat you'll always find me
Frame after frame
You try to turn me inside out
My shield newspaper thin
When I lied I was right
Right above all, all that you decree
Now if you don't mind I'd like to hide behind the flag of the free
And all the kings'men
