King Of Broken Hearts

Pieces of my past lay decaying in my castle
All the Queens are gone or dead
What was going through my head?
I turned to Jack, to whom I asked
Should I try to get her back?
He looked to me and then he said
"A pair of hearts is not a full house"

I went down to the Ace of Clubs
To partake in a drink or two
Barkeep asked "What's the matter, you?"
I shot my shot of good ol' Jack
"Should I try to get her back?
The Queen of Diamonds is crying
And she's talking like she's dying"

What comes around, goes around
I write my own demise
Cuz I'm the King Of Broken Hearts
I lie in all my lies

After the aftermath, I return to the throne
How am I to rule the land
When I'm ruling on my own?
Diamonds are forever, so I'm told
So why did I decide to fold?
When the cards from the deck removed
Are they gone, never resumed?

Stumbling upon the Queen Of Hearts is bittersweet
How do I give a heart
When my heart's in pieces?
Held together by bandages and smiles
Worn out from romance's miles
Hearts or Diamonds?
Now or Forever?

What comes around, goes around
My heartbreak paradigm
Cuz I'm the King Of Broken Hearts
To remain for all of time
