Lyrics of 'Princess Of China' by Cimona Nilla

Once upon a time, somebody ran
Somebody ran away seeing fast as I can
I got to go, I got to go
Once upon a time, we fell apart
You holding in your hands the two halves of my heart

Oh whoa, oh whoa

Oh whoa

Once upon a time we burned bright
Now all we ever seem to do is fight, on and on
And on and on and on,
Once upon a time, on the same side
Once upon a time, on the same side
In the same game

Now why'd you have to go?
Have to go and throw out all my things?

I could've been the princess, you'd be a king
Could have had a castle, worn a ring, but no
You let me go
I could've been the princess, you'd be a king
Could have had a castle, worn a ring, but no
You let me go

You stole my star
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la

You stole my star
La la la la la la

Oh whoa

'Cos you really hurt me
No, you really hurt me
'Cos you really hurt me
No, you really hurt me

'Cos you really hurt me oh-oh,
You really hurt me ooh-ooh-ooh,
'Cos you really hurt me oh-oh,
You really hurt me.

Just gonna stand there and watch me burn
Well that’s alright because I like the way it hurts
Just gonna stand there and hear me cry
Well that’s alright because I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie

I can’t tell you what it really is
I can only tell you what it feels like
And right now there’s a steel knife in my windpipe
I can’t breathe but I still fight while I can fight
As long as the wrong feels right it’s like I’m in flight
High off of love, drunk from my hate
Its like I’m huffing paint
And I love it the more that I suffer, I suffocate
And right before I’m about to drown she resuscitates me
She fucking hates me and I love it, wait
Where you going, I’m leaving you
No you ain’t, come back
We’re running right back
Here we go again, it’s so insane
Cause when it’s going good it’s going great
I’m superman with the wind at his back, she’s lois lane
But when it’s bad it’s awful I feel so ashamed, I snapped
Who’s that dude I don’t even know his name
I laid hands on her, I’ll never stoop so low again
I guess I don’t know my own strength

Just gonna stand there and watch me burn
Well that’s alright because I like the way it hurts
Just gonna stand there and hear me cry
Well that’s alright because I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie, I love the way you lie

You ever love somebody so much
You can barely breathe when you’re with ‘em

You meet and neither one of you even know what hit ‘em
Got that warm fuzzy feeling
Yeah them chills used to get ‘em
Now you’re getting fucking sick at lookin at ‘em
You swore you’d never hit ‘em
Never do nothing to hurt ‘em
Now you’re in each others face
Spewing venom in your words when you spit ‘em
You push, pull each other’s hair, scratch, claw
Bit ‘em, throw ‘em down, pin ‘em
So lost in the moments when you’re in them
It’s the craze that the corporate controls you both
So they say it’s best to go your seperate ways
Guess they don’t know you
Cause today, that was yesterday
Yesterday is over, it’s a different day
Silent broken records playing over
But you promised her next time you’ll show restrain
You don’t get another chance
Life is no nintendo game, but you lied again
Now you get to watch her leave out the window
I guess that’s why they call it window pane

Just gonna stand there and watch me burn
Well that’s alright because I like the way it hurts
Just gonna stand there and hear me cry
Well that’s alright because I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie, I love the way you lie

Now I know we said things
Did things that we didn’t mean
And we fall back into the same patterns, same routine
But your temper is just as bad is mine is
You’re the same as me
When it comes to love you’re just as blinded
Baby, please come back it wasn’t you maybe it was me
Maybe our relationship isn’t as crazy as it seems
Maybe that’s what happens when a tornado meets a valcano
All I know is I love you too much to walk away though
Come inside, pick up your bags off the sidewalk
Don’t you hear sincerity in my voice when I talk?
Told you this is my fault, look in the eyeball
Next time I’m pissed I’ll aim my fist at the drywall
Next time, there won’t be no next time
I apologize even though I know it’s lies
I’m tired of the games I just want her back
I know I’m a liar if she ever tries to fucking leave again
I’mma tie her to the bed and set this house on fire

Just gonna stand there and watch me burn
Well that’s alright because I like the way it hurts
Just gonna stand there and hear me cry
Well that’s alright because I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie, I love the way you lie
