lyrics

You’re the most beautiful creature I’ve ever seen
The most heavenly vision I’ve ever dreamed
With grace and splendour of a moon over sea
A fate too kind for lucky me

Ours is a thread too long to count or see
A knit so tight, rich tapestry
That shows a beautiful world, a monarchy
A king, a queen, a family

With just a few frayed ends, a couple slivers
A door ajar to hear something slither
A wolf, a sheep, a lass, a snake
And the the worst mistake I’ll ever make

Where’s the truth, who’s the fake?
I beat the bush, the tree I shake
But with weak foot, misstep I take
And that’s the worst mistake I’ll ever make

A fateful bullet in slowest motion
Yet to dodge is like to swim the ocean
Such is the way of poison rot
To call black as white and is as not

What’s the cost, what’s at stake?
A haunt so grave to try and shake
I take it back but too long I wait
And that’s the worst mistake I’ll ever make
