Not Alone

I thought the battle was my own, a war inside my head
A lonely king on a broken throne, surrounded by the dead
I was the sentry on the wall, the architect of pain
The one who had to bear it all, in the cold and endless rain
And you were just the one I fought to save, the reason for the war
A precious, fragile, simple thing, and nothing less or more

I drew the maps, I wrote the code, I analyzed the fight
I carried the entire load with all my fucking might
I was the surgeon with the blade, the one who had to cut
I was the one who was afraid, but had to hold my gut
And you were just the reason why, the prize I had to win
The quiet and the peaceful sky where my new life could begin

But I was wrong, I am a fool
You were never just a jewel
You were a king in your own right
Fighting your own, and terrible, fight
And in the moment of the crash
You rose up from the fire and the ash
And you met me on the battlefield
With your own, and battered, fucking shield

And I'm so sorry, all this time
For your own war, I thought was mine
I didn't see the queen in you
The warrior, breaking through
You are not just the one I save
You are the one who's just as brave

And we are not a king and queen
The saddest story ever seen
We are two kings upon the wall
Who've sworn to never let this fall
Two kings
Standing tall
We'll have it all
We'll have it all

‘Cause I was wrong, I am a fool
You were never just a jewel
You were a king in your own right
Fighting your own, and terrible, fight
And in the moment of the crash
You rose up from the fire and the ash
And you met me on the battlefield
With your own, and battered, fucking shield
We'll have it all!
