William The Conqueror - The Curse of Friends
Saw no reason to returnLeft the bridges there to burn, won't build more
And the miracles were buried with the coal
Furnace bound forevermore
If you wanted some forgiveness
To reflect upon the hands that only prayed if just to feel
But your history ain't my future
I'd better get my shoulder to the wheel
Coz I heard the news, made out the signs, so I stayed away
Once more with feeling and a curse of friends until my last day
She became a foreign princess for a day
Though the slipper always slides
Lost her loved ones to the army
Had an interest in successes on both sides
And the son she tried to ruin raised a ruin for himself
Ain't that the truth, too slight to stick
Keep the engine ticking over
For the memory I have is not so quick
Coz I heard the news, made out the signs, so I stayed away
Once more with feeling and a curse of friends until my last day
Handed out the evening news
Leaving dignity and clues between the page
Had some heroes long ago
When the curse you came to know was in its cage
Still you gave it what you could behind a mask you understood
Before it cracked and out you came
It's becoming of your legend
That you never looked for someone else to blame
Coz I heard the news, made out the signs, so I stayed away
Once more with feeling and a curse of friends until my last day
Five leaves left to light the fuses
And then split the bags of sand too far to see
Judging only from the whispers
Painting pictures with no colours absently
There's no shrine to keep pretending to
I'm thinking on my feet, it helps me hear
I've got mouths to feed
Blow me down from in the branches
I've heard all the sorry tales I could need
Coz I heard the news, made out the signs, so I stayed away
Once more with feeling and a curse of friends until my last day
