They said
Bring balance
Have substance
Be bold and kind
Deliver
And keep your promises in mind
While they
Make havoc
Cause panic
We're left behind
They said be patient
And gracious
And blameless
And tell no lies
Keep hope
And faith
Remain behind the line
But just stop it
You dropped it
A compromise
Indifference of a different kind
Indeed, the opposite is true
Your King is lying to you
Admit it
You're finished
You went too far
No limits
Just digits
Ageing repertoire
You discourage
The lovers
And worried ones
We suffer
And stumble
To keep you there
You mumble
And stutter
Don't move anywhere
If mercy has a weapon
It's buried in you
If mercy has a weapon then it's buried in you
If mercy has a weapon
It's buried in you
Indeed, the opposite is true
Your King is lying to you
