My heart’s spent on your conscience
It’s in debt but I’m not
I’m always more than honest
It hurts more than I want
I’m tearin' through the conflict
I’m sick of all the bullshit
I can’t breathe through the poison
To cleanse me of your haunting
Oooh
I never meant to give up my innocence
Oooh
Patience runs deep in my veins and I drown in it
Cause you gave me an empire
You made me your only queen
I didn’t know that my throne was built on guilt and fantasy
You gave me an empire
You already knew you’d leave
I watched it all as you burned down these walls
The ashes fall, like snow they bury me
I gave you someone empty
And scraped everything out
Kept all of my insides
And I left you with the doubt
I won’t give you the light that you’re swearing that you need
I’m tryin' to contain it so I’m here still when you leave
Oooh
You never meant to give up indifference
Oooh
Your pulse runs deep in my veins and I drown in it
Cause you gave me an empire
You made me your only queen
I didn’t know that my throne was built on guilt and fantasy
You gave me an empire (gave me an empire)
You already knew you’d leave
I watched it all as you burned down these walls
The ashes fall, like snow they bury me
You bury me
In the madness of my heart
You gave me an empire
You made me your only queen
I didn’t know that my throne was built on guilt and fantasy
You gave me an empire (you gave me it all)
That you already knew you’d leave
I watched it all as you burned down these walls
The ashes fall, like snow they bury me
