"White Horse" lyrics

Distance right between us
Right behind your eyes
Your smile is a defense
Shining like a knight
High up in your castle
What you trying to hide
Arrows raining down
You won't let no one inside
But that dagger on your side
Has never seen an enemy die
The backs of your friends all it recognize
You kill the ones you love all the time

So I had to leave the kingdom
Cause loyalty to you it don't mean none
Crows picking at my eardrum
Blood falling out my eyes when the tears come

Its hard to make a move
When this game's like chess, yeah
I don't make the rules
Can't remember when I slept, yeah
Heart beating out my chest
Like a battle cry
No matter the wound
I'ma be alright

I feel like a knight on a white horse
By the end of the night you'll know my sword
I said I feel like a knight on a white horse
By the end of the night you'll know my sword

Distance right between us
Right behind your eyes
Your smile is a defense
Shining like a knight
High up in your castle
What you trying to hide
Arrows raining down
You won't let no one inside
But that dagger on your side
Has never seen an enemy die
The backs of your friends all it recognize
You kill the ones you love all the time
