Oh no, not again.
Fate's conspired to bring my end.
I should have noticed he was stacking the deck,
but I was too busy lying to protect my neck.
I guess it's the price that I pay
to lay in the beds I made.
Now every step I take's a toe on the line
and the tightrope act is gonna end sometime.
My full heart, my tin crown.
Now the tide's coming in and I'll be left swimming.
My full heart, my tin crown.
Now the tide's coming in and I'll be left sinking.
Should I save face and start to swim?
Or swallow the water and start sinking?
I know you see me and the shape that I'm in,
but we all get wet when we're pissing in the wind.
So how do the dots connect when the lights get blurred and intersect?
I hope it's not
as bad as I could expect,
but I know that the pipe is coming to collect.
My full heart,
my tin crown.
Now the tide's coming
in and I'll be left swimming.
My full
heart, my tin crown.
Now the tide's coming in and I'll be left sinking.
Your words are raging sea.
I don't know how I could disagree.
I hear the horrors that you're
claiming of me and they're all just as true as you want them to be.
But what else can I do?
All of my plans have fallen through.
At least you're left without a shadow of doubt and I
know you've been waiting for a chance to turn around.
My full heart, my tin crown.
Now the tide's coming in and I'll be left swimming.
My full heart, my tin crown.
Now the tide's coming in and I'll be left sinking.
