The Extraordinary Contraptions - Forfeit Lyrics




You said you would meet me behind the fair
You said you would listen, though you didn't care to hear
I wouldn't cheat you out on the truth
I would be perfect, bring you the proof
All the words I've raised, come a rain
I want you
I need you, oh, I bleed you
And the price you say is fair

You said you would rule with an iron fist, keeping your cool,
You said you would tell me when I had done well
You said you would beat me, put me through hell
I could be perfect, you smile with a sneer
All the sacrifice, with none brought back to life
Voice shrill
I warned you, oh I told you
That the pain was just too much

Under a moon I can see your eyes
Reflecting the light, and underlying lies
I was a fool, I can see it now
The power you'd had was a prophecy of vows
And despite your devilish feint, you've brought me up
But not the way you'd like
I taunt you
I feed you, oh, I bleed you
And the price is more than fair

You said you would meet me in the deep beyond
Now that I've set you there I'm not sure I'd want to come
My soul is forfeit, yeah, you've seen to that
A life lived in torture, a rapture painted all in black
All the sacrifice, come together now
