My kingdom came, my kingdom went
My kingdom for some time well spent
My open book is being closed again

My kingdom come, my kingdom go
My kingdom for something to know
But words are often better left unsaid

I thought you said you got my call
The hit that stung me worst of all
I could feel the future in my bones

I see your call, you call my bluff
I leave the key, you get your stuff
This sweater smells like you, I'll get it washed.
