We Could Be Kings
Dave Hause

So this is rejection

And its bringing you down

He told you that hed find work soon

Then he stopped coming around

That was the summer of sweet nights

He used to take you for rides

But it all changed in the backseat

He came inside

Well hes seen enough to know

Hes old enough to know whats right from wrong

I know how hard it is to see things through

Oh no did it rip you apart?

To be told we could be kings

When we were damned from the start

Oh no did it rip you apart?

They told us we could be kings

When we were damned, damned from the start

You told him you loved him

But pushing come to show

There were no easy answers

Mixing money and blood

He was too young to know better

And you were unemployed

The sergeant promised a cake walk

But then he got deployed

Ive seen enough, enough to know

Its not about which side youre on

I know how hard it is to keep it in

Oh no did it rip you apart?

To be told we could be kings

When we were damned from the start

I know that it rips you apart

They told us we could be kings

When we were damned, damned from the start

Weve been living to the left of the dial

Hoping drinks and denial will keep us here

Im not promising you some bright side

Were trying to break your stride

But you asked me, you asked me

He was gone in an instant

They say nobody was spared

Not gonna tell you he loved you

Not gonna tell you he cared

Well Ive seen enough, enough to know

Sometimes with the truth you gotta let it go

I know how hard it is to keep it in

I wont going rip you apart

And tell you, you could be king

I dont wanna break your heart

I wont going rip you apart

So open wide and youll sing

Cause were all damned

Open wide and youll see

Cause were all damned, damned from the start

Were damned from the start
