King

I sleep with my window open

So I know when the sun is gone

I dream of putting my head in the oven

As I sit above all on my throne

I dream of cradling hearts in my hands

Walking on the bones of those I love

Picking from their hair a few strands

Owning everyone and standing above

Feed me, could I ever rule?

All I know is to destroy

I promise I am not always this cruel

I know how to be gentle with a toy.
