For King and Country
Royal Betrayal: Unveiling the Dark Secrets of Power
Lyrics
Looking down from the penthouse suite
Observing from a luxurious hotel suite at a high vantage point
It's the queen of cold complicity
Referring to a woman who appears emotionally detached and unfeeling
Don't look now, another one dead
Noticing another person's demise
Just cover your heart and bow your head
Advising to protect oneself emotionally and show respect for the deceased
For King and Country baby
Emphasizing allegiance to a cause or authority, possibly with a critical tone
For King and Country baby
Reiterating commitment to a cause or authority
Bleeding heart when the cameras roll
Describing someone as compassionate when in the public eye
Wrecking ball when the doors are closed
Characterizing someone as destructive and ruthless in private
Find your kill and lick it clean
Encouraging to identify and embrace one's destructive actions
Bleach those bones for the world to see
Suggesting a need to hide or erase evidence of destructive behavior for public image
For King and Country baby
Repeating the commitment to a cause or authority
For King and Country baby
Reiterating allegiance, possibly with a critical undertone
So look at this beautiful daughter
Drawing attention to a visually appealing daughter
Up on her throne with her head held high
Describing the daughter confidently sitting on a throne
This is your new scarlet letter
Labeling the daughter as marked by society for a perceived wrongdoing
Turning your head till the blood runs dry
Advising to avert one's gaze as a metaphorical act of avoiding the consequences
So look at this beautiful daughter
Repeating the description of the daughter in a powerful position
Up on her throne with her head held high
Emphasizing the daughter's confident posture
This is your new scarlet letter
Reiterating the labeling of the daughter with a symbolic mark of shame
Turning your head till the blood runs dry
Advising to turn away from the consequences until they no longer affect emotionally
So look at this beautiful daughter
Again presenting the daughter in a powerful and confident position
Up on her throne with her head held high
Repeating the image of the daughter sitting proudly on a throne
This is your new scarlet letter
Reiterating the labeling of the daughter with a symbolic mark of shame
Turning your head till the blood runs dry
Encouraging to turn away from the emotional impact until it fades away
