like you were protected from the forces of nature

but when i close my eyes late at night
Am                          F

        C
and you stare at me like someone who
Am                                F
someone who will crumble with the flesh and blood

the work of my hands was the worth of my word

the worst of my life

and once upon a time i was king of your world

someone who will crumble with the flesh and blood

and i'm asking you, can you still love me

after all the hell that i put you through
