These Are Lies (Impossible Prince)

I need to go home

I should be in bed

Yet I’m here 

Entranced . By you.  

I’m the king of nothing 

Prince of promises. 

It’s all Impossible

I’ll be your impossible prince 

To have everything and nothing

Rejected as a saint as a sinner

Loving every man and not reciprocating 

Believing in love despite life

And it’s deepest pain again and again 

Waking with the moon and sun believing lies. 

These are

These are

These are

Lies

I should be alone

But I’m not with you

Despite fear

Of loving you

I’m no better than you

And your promises 

It’s all Impossible

I’ll be your impossible prince 

To have everything and nothing

Rejected as a saint as a sinner

Loving every man and not reciprocating 

Believing in love despite life

And it’s deepest pain again and again 

Waking with the moon and sun believing lies. 

These are

These are

These are

Lies

Hero and fool, Touch and caress

The limits of torture and tenderness

The hopes and fantasies

Of an impossible prince 

To have everything and nothing

Rejected as a saint as a sinner

Loving every man and not reciprocating 

Believing in love despite life

And it’s deepest pain again and again 

Waking with the moon and sun believing lies. 

These are

These are

These are

Lies
