The Monarchy Lyrics

Built a home in a loaded daydream

Took for granted time

Ready now to come to terms that

We can't escape our crimes

What kind of man could spend his days drinking

Until we're broke

What kind of woman prefers night life

Over a seat at the throne

So I'll say a prayer for us as we grow old apart and stoned

And I'll take a walk through the garden you've left me to roam

When will the final blow take place

Will it tear down these walls

Or will it all come crumbling down to pieces

Will the family fall

So I'll say a prayer for us as we grow old apart and stoned

And I'll take a walk through the garden you've left me to roam

Tell me that you've not forgotten

How you once loved me

And I'll send up a prayer and hope that all our sins will soon be cleaned

Tell me that you've not forgotten

How you once loved me

And I'll send up a prayer and hope that all our sins will soon be cleaned

Oh I'll send up a prayer and hope that all our sins will soon be cleaned
