lyrics

Like this, like this?
If you insist
If you insist, then almost
All these hard bargains right down the list
The knuckles of government red and...

Ernest is dead, so soon shall I be
Sequestered by my wealth
I fall into step and betray you his company
The poisonous victor emerging

Like this, like this?
If you resist
If you resist, then no one
Will be there to scrape the last
Rinds from your fist
Mistaking the suitor his shadow

I reach for my mask
But remember I wear none
As though to remove it
Would rile your surprise
Pledge my loss to a genius child
Gathering up his robe

As I, without genius,
Reach for my crown
Imagined, all imagined
Presenting my lady a pleasant throne
She's so still, my lady, in another country

But still my baby
We nuzzled in the cradle
Infants praying softly
Leap the fence, our only chance
Defenseless in our treasons

There is no substitution for mercy
