king midas in reverse

if you could only see me

and know exactly who i am

you wouldn't want to be me

oh i can assure you of that

i'm not the guy to run with

'cos i'll throw you off the line

i'll break you and destroy you

given time

he's king midas with a curse

he's king midas in reverse

he's king midas with a curse

he's king midas in reverse

it's plain to see it's hopeless

going on that way we are

so even though i lose you

you'd be better of by far

he's not the one to hold your trust

everything around him turns to dust

in his hand

nothing he can do is right

he'd even like to sleep at night

but he can't

he's king midas with a curse

he's king midas in reverse

he's king midas with a curse

he's king midas in reverse

i wish someone would find me

and help me gain control

before i lose my reason and my soul

he's king midas with a curse

he's king midas in reverse

he's king midas with a curse

he's king midas in reverse
