king of swords - te/mo (teagan earley) lyrics
[verse 1]
“i was safe with you”, that’s what you said
“just come on in and get your fortune read”
drawn to you by hand*spun fated thread
the looks you gave me could have raised the dead
[pre*chorus]
my achilles heel revealed by bones you stole to scry
asked about the only thing that always makes me cry
and i didn’t want to believe it all might be a lie
left staring at the sky and wondering why
[chorus]
the king of swords
the table turned
and you played me
for all i’m worth
my future lost
to sleight of hand
and even now
don’t understand
just how you did it, but you did it
you flipped it on me
[verse 2]
tell me, were we doomed right from the start?
the card shark feasts upon a lonely heart
dealt me in, each shuffle was an art
i still applauded as i fell apart
[pre*chorus]
i was helen fair, yes, i was yours ripe for the theft
’till the spartans crashed the welcome party, so you up and left
i had never seen a planned retreat so masterfully deft
the newfound queen of ilion bereft
[chorus]
the king of swords
the table turned
and you played me
for all i’m worth
my future lost
to sleight of hand
and even now
don’t understand
just how you did it, but you did it
you flipped it on me
[bridge]
when the wager called for sacrifice
i threw my heart in without thinking twice
thought maybe once you’d won it, you would stay
next time i will call a sword a spade
[chorus]
the king of swords
the table turned
and you played me
for all i’m worth
my future lost
to sleight of hand
and even now
don’t understand
[outro]
the king of swords
the queen who stayed
if you only knew
the price she paid
the pair of us
gave quite a show
but now i’ll reap
just what i sow
because i did it
yes, i did it
i flipped it
