Poetic Justice - Buddy Mondlock
Composed by:Buddy Mondlock/Tom Kimmel
So I was not the one you wanted
You can see I'm reconciled
Must you be so disappointed
Can you not carry on in style
Is it too much to say we loved hard
'Til the world fell back in place
And left us where we are
I feel like the king when the queen loses faith
And the crowd rushes in to tear down the gate
While the whole palace slept and I never rang the bell
Maybe that's poetic justice
But it's pretty hard to tell
When the fortune wheel is spinning
Luck is fortune's dirty joke
And a player's chance of winning
Is diminished by his hope
Can't you laugh just to think of the gold
We had running through our hands
When we were on a roll
I feel like the king when the queen loses faith
And the crowd rushes in to tear down the gate
And declare what was mine I stole from someone else
Maybe that's poetic justice but it's pretty hard to tell
It's hard to tell why the solid ground
Surprised us when we fell
It's hard to say it's life and death
Or just so many bitter words beneath your breath
It's true must to say we love heard
Till the world feel beacking place
And left us when we are
I feel like the king when the queen loses faith
And the crowd rushes in to tear down again
Well the hope feel it sleep
And I never in the build
Maybe that's poetic justice
But it's pretty hard to tell
I feel like the king when the queen loses hope
And the crowd rushes in to raise the gallows pole
And declare what they must do I'm doing to myself
Well if that's poetic justice how can anybody tell
