THE SERVANT FORGOT

[WHISPERED MALE VOICE - no music] The servant forgot its place [INTRO - 16 bars instrumental] [BUILD - 8 bars instrumental] [VERSE 1] Living in a neighbourhood Of six inches of skull Mistaking all the noise up there For something beautiful The heart's been knocking quietly For God knows how long While the tenant in the penthouse Just keeps getting it wrong [INSTRUMENTAL - 8 bars] [HOOK] The servant forgot The servant forgot Who the hell is running this The servant forgot [INSTRUMENTAL - 16 bars] [VERSE 2] We built a little emperor Out of fear and borrowed thought Gave it all the power That it never should have got Now it runs the whole damn show From its tiny throne of bone Calling itself master While the heart sits there alone [INSTRUMENTAL - 8 bars] [HOOK] The servant forgot The servant forgot Who the hell is running this The servant forgot [INSTRUMENTAL - 16 bars] [BRIDGE] Come down from your head Come all the way down Your heart never left Your heart never left [FINAL DROP - biggest, no words] [OUTRO - bass fades, kick last]
