Crown Yourself A King, Kill Yourself A Queen-The Autumn Offering

The relics of my long dead past A black rose in constant bloom No tears for my misfortune This shadow Heart no one intrudes ...And I've lived in my own way These words I've lived to tell When you knew you couldn't save me To open arms or death you gave me If my words open your eyes Would that make this justified I've been left behind So why do we seek our tortures Blind words of noble men This opaque heart I curse The past I've left behind These years of anguish left me hollow If my words open your eyes Would that make this justified I've been left behind If my words open your eyes Would that make this justified I've been left behind If my words open your eyes Would that make this justified I've been left behind You have crowned yourself a queen Yet a pawn that you have made I choke in the blackened waters Amidst the waves Alive we'll burn If my words open your eyes Would that make this justified I've been left behind If my words open your eyes If my words open your eyes If my words open your eyes
