Kj Beach - Checkmate Baby Lyrics

You wear the mask so perfectly
The world sees class they don't see me
Behind closed doors it's sharp and cold
Your grip is tight your lies are bold
You bruise with words you bruise with hands
But never leave a mark that stands
You smile for crowds so sweet refined
While crushing bones and stealing minds
They only see your perfect charm
While I'm the one who bears the harm
Your laughter's loud your eyes stay kind
But no one knows what's left behind
You push me close then tear apart
But fate's preparing one final card
You think you're winning got me on the ropes
But the tighter you squeeze the more you choke
The perfect face the hidden sting
Now watch as your empire stings
The trap you set it's closing in
Game over darling checkmate's thin
Behind the door your hands are steel
You twist the truth so I can't heal
You gaslight me then stand so tall
Convince the world I had the fall
You drag me down and mock my pain
You never cared there's nothing to gain
But darling you forgot one thing
Even devils meet their reckoning
You push me close then tear apart
But fate's preparing one final card
You think you're winning got me on the ropes
But the tighter you squeeze the more you choke
The perfect face the hidden sting
Now watch as your empire stings
The trap you set it's closing in
Game over darling checkmate's thin
Aaaah aaaah-aaaah aaaah aah
Aaaah aaaah-aaaah aaaah aah
Here's the twist you aimed to break
But didn't see what was at stake
The hands you used to take control
Slipped and now it's on your soul
You cut too deep you pushed too far
Your mask has shattered now there's the scar
AAAAAAARGH
Your final blow was meant for me
But darling fate set you free
You thought you'd win but lost the fight
The shadows you cast now steal your light
The puppet master brought down by strings
Now silence falls no more king
The trap you set it's done you're gone
Game over darling checkmate's on
Now the truth is out they've seen it all
The mask you wore began to fall
No one's buying what you sold
Your secrets out your story told
They speak your name with darkened shame
Your victims rise no one's to blame
You had your reign now it's all erased
You died and with you your false grace
You thought you'd win but lost the fight
The shadows you cast now steal your light
The puppet master brought down by strings
Now silence falls no more king
The trap you set it's done you're gone
Game over darling checkmate's on
Checkmate baby you sealed your fate
No second chance it's way too late
Way too late way too late way too late
The hands you used are stained and bare
No one left to see or care
Now there's nothing left just you
And the dark you're falling into
Checkmate baby
