He was not mine
He was not mine
I saw him fall
To the white sand
In Pamplona
There was a matador,
A king

He swung the muleta,
Every heartbeat was a scream

Wish I was there
Wish I was there
To turn the blade
To wipe his tears
To shield his bones

And let the lightning gore my soul

But nobody covers for a matador

"Oh I am merely human,
My body covered in buttons
Can you feel the thunder
When I bow and arch the veil?"

The stars are dull
Arching the sun
It's getting late
They've chained the moon

Now bet your coins
Tapando la cara con la muleta

The sun never rises on a matador

"Oh I am merely human,
My body covered in buttons
Can you feel the thunder
When I bow and arch the veil?"

Kneel, kneel
Spoliarium
A place to heal

Kneel, kneel
To the angels in high heels
