Lie Like Vortigern (Oberon)

[verse 1] I know I like to talk with all my fingers crossed I might just stretch the truth, to mold it when its soft But it’s all to burn this faux world at any cost So, what if your proper history is also lost? [Chorus] Just Lie like Oberon —the faerie king of deceit Sing songs of victory while the ground rots beneath your feet Your pretty little crowns must be such heavy things... I can help you, by turning them into puppet strings I'll make you fly, make you soar, until you fulfill my goal But once the sixth bell rings I'll cut your little wings [Verse 2] Oh, once upon a time, I wore a softer face Played the jester, smiled so wide — just a trust misplaced But kindness is a costume, and hope’s a masquerade And every dream you dream is just another tool of my trade [Chorus] Just Lie like Oberon —the faerie king of deceit Sing songs of victory while the ground rots beneath your feet Your pretty little crowns must be such heavy things... I can help you, by turning them into puppet strings I'll make you fly, make you soar, until you fulfill my goal But once the sixth bell rings I'll cut your little wings [verse 3] You thought me sweet? What a pitiful mistake This world was lost so long ago —and now I'm here to watch it break I gifted you myths and nightmares sewn into a crown And then I laughed like thunder when I dragged your heaven down [Final Chorus] Just Lie like Vortigern —the faerie king of deceit Sing songs of victory while the ground rots beneath your feet Your pretty little crowns must be such heavy things... I can help you, by turning them into puppet strings I'll make you fly, make you soar, until you fulfill my goal But once the sixth bell rings I'll cut your little wings [Outro] So go ahead — believe in tales of knights and kings... That just made it easier to clip your wings.
