lyrics
She's a part to play, a knife game dame,
One in a million dice,
Confetti swirls and champagne girls.
Employed to throw the rice,
The wedding march, the entry arch, the vows impart,
Commitment's name will serve to tame that spirit flame that piece of art.
Forever's the shortest word to break its promises to us,
A pinch of salt taken every time the phrase I love you and a phrase combine.
The rain that falls upon us all is what you make of it,
When puddle drain and streets lie plain will you regret the things you say?
In pillow talk are cheese and chalk so far removed or close at all?
When things are clear do you still hear that divine voice the call to prayer?
Forever's the shortest word to break its promises to us,
A pinch of salt taken every time the phrase I love you and a phrase combine.
Cycles repeat to stamping feet, crowds that cannot be controlled,
For every wound, within its womb gestates another windfall swoon,
Romance dictates in heartbreak's place, another face must draw an ace,
We gave this rule a pedestal now it's our creed now it's our all.
Forever's the shortest word to break its promises to us,
A pinch of salt taken every time the phrase I love you and a phrase combine.
She's a part to play, a knife game dame,
One in a million dice,
Confetti swirls and champagne girls.
Employed to throw the rice,
The wedding march, the entry arch, the vows impart,
Commitment's name will serve to tame that spirit flame that piece of art.
One in a million dice,
Confetti swirls and champagne girls.
