Highness Songtext

von Envy & Other Sins

I look up, it's 10.15
And what have I achieved?
A dog-end stubbed and an idea scrubbed,
And square one looming dangerously.
I've waited on your favor
For what seems a century,
I've hung round town,
Kicked cans around,
This pauper's life is not for me but

Highness how can you blame me?
When you play me off against your other lovers
Highness how can you blame me?
When you play me off against your other lovers

Life flits past my window
Like the shadows 'cross my walls.
Patience stretched,
A hopeless wretch lies waiting on your regal call,
And ever since the day we first crossed paths
I must've crossed my heart
A thousand times along these lines,
Yet still I worship from afar, but

Highness how can you blame me?
When you play me off against your other lovers
Highness how can you blame me?
When you play me off against your other lovers

How can you say I want you
How can you say I need you
How can you say I love you
When Highness, you know it's not true?

How can you say I want you
How can you say I need you
How can you say I love you
When it's not true?

Highness how can you blame me?
When you play me off against your other lovers
Highness how can you blame me?
When you play me off against your other lovers

Highness how can you blame me?
When you play me off against your other lovers
Highness how can you blame me?
When you play me off against your other lovers

How can you say I love you
