Lyrics for All the Kings

Send me to Venus, send me to Mars A crippling fear of coliding stars Break from tradition, the first little taste A gentle reminder, a tear on your face But the beat of your heart Is alone in the dark The place where we met is haunted by thieves Sifting through memories, the fallen leaves Opaque is your soul, now race through the clock Immunity over, took a moment then stop But the beat of your heart Is alone in the dark The beat of your heart The beat of your heart Loneliness forever, loneliness forever Holding back a river, holding back a river All the kings are coming Marching to the sound from your ribcage So send me to Venus, send me to Mars Seen all your failures, all your scars Seen it all burn down, we dance to the sparks We dance to the beating of your broken heart Loneliness forever, loneliness forever Holding back a river, holding back a river And all the kings are coming Marching to the sound from your ribcage Oh, let it all burn down We built a house on the sun Oh, let it al burn down We didn't know what we'd done Oh, let it al burn down We built a house on the sun Oh, let it al burn down We didn't know what we'd done Loneliness forever, loneliness forever Holding back a river, holding back a river And all the king are coming Marching to the sound from your ribcage Would you hold on? (Hold on) Would you hold on? (Hold on) All the kings are coming But the beat of your heart Is alone in the dark Beat of your heart Beat of your heart The beat of your heart Beat of your heart
