[Verse 1]
Let me ask you! If I died for you
Would you die for me?
What do the cards say?
On this cold, dank day!
[Pre-Chorus 1]
I've spread the deck out so many times
I've watched the lamps burn bright
I've spread the deck so many times
I've seen their insight!
[Pre-Chorus 2]
All the signs told me
All this time, all this time...
[Chorus]
The king's sworn men make perfect liars
She sleeps with bones beside her...
They found her body in a nest of vipers!
[Verse 2]
How many miles to Babylon?
I've been back and around the sun...
Riding in the hands of gods
To spill the wine and worship the dogs!
[Pre-Chorus 1]
I've spread the deck out so many times
I've watched the lamps burn bright
[Pre-Chorus 2]
All the signs told me
This time...
[Chorus]
The king's sworn men make perfect liars
They found her body in a nest of vipers!
She sleeps with bones beside her...
They found her body in a nest of vipers
In a nest of vipers!
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
Heir to the throne!
Wings spread spitting fire!
Heavy is the crown
That weights down the desire!
Heir to the throne!
Wings spread spitting fire!
Heavy is the crown
That weights down the desire!
[Guitar Solo]
[Refrain]
If I die for you
Would you die for me?
[Chorus]
The king's sworn men make perfect liars
(If I die for you, would you die for me?)
They found her body in a nest of vipers
(If I die for you, would you die for...)
She sleeps with bones beside her
(If I die for you, would you die for me?)
They found her body in a nest of vipers...
In a nest of vipers!
[Outro]
If I die for you
Would you die for me?!
