The King and the Bishop Lyrics by Deadly Circus Fire

The King and the Bishop

2013

[Verse 1]
So I find a way to save my soul
Until he finds another way in
So I find a place to save us all
I severe these ties
I hide, never
[Verse 2]
Will he find the time to rise inside?
Will I keep the beast at bay?
Still, it shakes me as I draw the line
It's just a matter of when I break
[Chorus]
Back in my head
The demon screams inside again
Back in my head
What's this you're telling me?
Why can't you leave it be?
[Verse 3]
They will play you like a puppet, boy
Try to fill you with their wires
Let me out and I will help you, boy
Remember these ties
[Pre-Chorus]
Find a place to hide
Do you hear me?
Running out of time
Leave me to ruin!
The city died in its sleep, now it's gone
Pity that you won't see that this is my beck and call
[Chorus]
Back in my head
The demon screams inside again
Back in my head
What's this you're telling me?
Why can't you leave it be?
Back in my head
Back in my head
Why don't you let it be?
Release me!
[Post-Chorus]
I will find a way
Is his heart not worth its weight in gold?
Will he ever know it's worth its weight in-
[Bridge]
Hail in to the vicious cycle
Nothing here but a memory
I feel so lonely
Never win, so I'm on my knees
Ever since before
And they called it a miracle
Sin, I kneel before him
Does it even matter?
Does it even matter?
Does it even matter?
Does it even matter?
You won't take me alive
You've got no place to hide
Edges will fray
No one will leave here alive
Stray dogs cry
Caught in the path of the headlights
Pray!
Beg for your chance to survive
Sickness and slaves
All in the kingdom of flies
Why won't you leave me alone?
'Cause they're reaping the seeds that they've sewn
From the (place side?) Do you hear me?
(I'm running out of time)
([?])
[Chorus]
Back in my head
The demon screams inside again
Back in my head
What's this you're telling me?
Why can't you leave it be?
Back in my head
Back in my head
Why don't you let it be?
Why don't you leave me?
