Delilah - Kings and Queens Lyrics

She goes by a different name
Place a rose upon her grave
No more power

Will you think of her in the evening light
When you're driving home on a Sunday night
Does she matter?

Who are you now and what will you do
When the kings and queens melt down like glue
On the pavement?

My heart of gold is set on fire
So blow it out and try to mend all the ashes

But I'm just the paint that dried before it even got on the canvas
What could've been such stunning art
Is stuck and hardened in one position

It's still there
The glow still shines
On a good day
And by that I mean when you come home
Cause' I don't want to feel alone on the pallet
My dreams are filled with a white cloud
So why do I get the gray ones that cover and hide my chances with a big frown?

I'm not another, you'll miss me soon
So hold your wish till the big full moon
I don't know evil

You wish I did, cause if I was
You'd tear the castles down like no one's business

I'm melted down, I'm stuck like glue
Am I the queen or are you the fool who did it?

I'll hop on the train to where you are
Maybe then I'll find a new decision

But I'm just the paint that dried before it got on the canvas
Because what could've been such stunning art
Is stuck and hardened in one position

It's still there, the glow still shines on a good day
And by that I mean, when you come home, because I don't want to feel alone on the pallet
My dreams are filled with a white cloud
So why do I get the gray ones that cover and hide my chances with a big frown

It's still there, the glow still shines on a good day
And by that I mean, when you come home, because I don't want to feel alone on the pallet
My dreams are filled with a white cloud
So why do I get the gray ones that cover and hide my chances with a big frown
