the ghost of chapel royal

Singer:louis xiv

this soul has not yet been taken

could i request it back at once gratefully

the sky's so blue

it's an ocean

an ocean with all sorts of life in it

but me

why did you have to go away?

why did you have to go away?

mother

you'd scream at the king

like he's a servant from day one

and you created a hole in his solid stability

you knocked him clear off his limestone rocker

now he has left all this kingdom to me

and i'm so afraid to rule alone

now this kingdom

your closet

i'm locked in

is now my home

daddy

why suicide?

why couldn't you just cry instead?

daddy

why suicide?

why couldn't you just cry instead?

daddy

why suicide?

why couldn't you just cry instead?
