lyrics
"In The Time Of Kings"
Daylight cracks in too soon, hanging out like bats at noon.
We were alright, we were late night, we were in the time of kings.
She’s sweet water to you, you dry mouthed sailor boy you.
But it was over, it was over, it was oh so overblown.
CHORUS
Light soaked they begged you for another, but in the morning you’ll be moving on, you’ll be gone you’ll be driving all night long.
You ground your best teeth to dust, the only girl who loved you you lost.
But it was ok, ‘cause there was no way you were ever coming back to us.
Now you throw your punches under water, and the devil is waiting to collect.
Do you regret, can you forget what you ain’t had yet.
CHORUS
We were late night, we were alright we were in the time of kings.
But you choked, when they loved you like no other,
Then they leave you, they leave you for a song, tell me where did it go wrong.
Daylight cracks in too soon, hanging out like bats at noon.
We were alright, we were late night, we were in the time of kings.
She’s sweet water to you, you dry mouthed sailor boy you.
But it was over, it was over, it was oh so overblown.
CHORUS
Light soaked they begged you for another, but in the morning you’ll be moving on, you’ll be gone you’ll be driving all night long.
You ground your best teeth to dust, the only girl who loved you you lost.
But it was ok, ‘cause there was no way you were ever coming back to us.
Now you throw your punches under water, and the devil is waiting to collect.
Do you regret, can you forget what you ain’t had yet.
CHORUS
We were late night, we were alright we were in the time of kings.
But you choked, when they loved you like no other,
Then they leave you, they leave you for a song, tell me where did it go wrong.
