lyrics

You signed your name on other plans
But you held your guilt in open hands
Didn’t you have someone else
But you crossed her off without a thought
Threw all the coins you had
Straight to the bottom of the well
To see if you were missing out
On someone better somewhere else

And you tried
To claim
Best of both the options
Caught up in the moment but I won’t remain
A pawn
Whilst you play the kings game
Making stale promises

In your name

Done being the price you paid
For every mistake that you have made
Bending over backwards just in case
Your hot and cold persona turns out not to be a phase
You’re in the middle of a bridge that’s burning at both ends
And aren’t you bored playing this losing game all by yourself?

And you tried
To claim
Best of both the options
Caught up in the moment but I won’t remain
A pawn
Whilst you play the kings game
Making stale promises

In your name

Lay me down in this fire you’ve set
Hear me scream until there is nothing left
Lay me down in this fire you’ve set
Hear me scream

In your name
