Chess Lyrics

I'll go out like a knight

Trying to capture someone's queen

But after a night out

I couldn't even walk

A straight line

When I was King

My Queen was taken in front of me

Life is a game of chess

And this is checkmate

I'm no religious man

No bishop I could trust

Always going sideways

To cover your soul

In sin and rust

When I was King

Everyone was after me

Life is a game of chess

And this is checkmate

So I'll start again

Back in the frontline again

Once a King, now a pawn

One small step ahead every day

And it will take time

Long way to the other side

On a journey to death

Or to conquer back my crown
