lyrics

King & Pawn
---------------

Good day my name is L
And things are good and life is swell
My house is falling down
The river's high we all may drown

The weight is crushing
Endless responsibilities
Eternal rushing

King have mercy on me
Your pawn

I'd like a loving touch
A soft escape is that too much
A girl a soothing song
So help me God my motive's wrong

The roof is leaking
And I'm trying so hard to be the man
It's peace I'm seeking

King have mercy on me
Your pawn
Mine is dead but your love
Lives on

Look at the lake
Soak in the sunset
Need some every day
To still my soul

In circles turning
It tastes like burning

King have mercy on me
Your pawn
Mine is dead but your love
Lives on
King have mercy on me
Your pawn
Mine is dead but your love
Lives on
