Witness of the Heart (Kings Pop Rock)

Verse 1

Heavy boots

Tearing up the garden

Rotten roots and bitter bargains

Searching for a soul

Where the hole used to be

Empty

Void

Verse 2

Black blood

Spilled on the marble

I see your face

I see the rubble

You hide

Behind a mask of gold

A hollow casing

Cold and old

Rotting

Foul

Chorus

Your heart is the witness

Your heart is the judge

Your heart is the jury

And it won't ever budge

The world sees the poison

The world sees the stains

The world sees the fire

Running through your veins

Post-Chorus

Guilty

So guilty

No mercy tonight

Verse 3

Locked doors

Bolted against the truth

Wasted youth

And the tooth for a tooth

Cruel

Cruel and jagged

A mind so torn

A spirit ragged

Stumble

Fall down

Chorus

Your heart is the witness

Your heart is the judge

Your heart is the jury

And it won't ever budge

The world sees the poison

The world sees the stains

The world sees the fire

Running through your veins

Post-Chorus

Guilty

So guilty

No mercy tonight

Bridge

No prayer can save you

No king can waive you

No god can crave you

Down in the dirt

Where the criminals sleep

Where the shadows are deep

Promises you couldn't keep

Pain and hurt

Guitar Solo

Chorus

Your heart is the witness

Your heart is the judge

Your heart is the jury

And it won't ever budge

The world sees the poison

The world sees the stains

The world sees the fire

Running through your veins

Outro

The weight of it

The hate of it

The end of it

Judged by the core

Nothing more

Nothing more

Nothing more

Just the dark inside
