Expectant Loyalty
This is ours, we don't have to justify.
We've worked hard together all our lives, we don't have to lie.
They hate that we succeed, they hate that we're all we need
Hidden curses fall onto our plates, cruel jibes behind our faces those people make
Expectant loyalty?
Bloodlines.........really?
Where were they in our hours of need?
You're my wife, the only one to whom I'll kneel
You're the reason I still breathe, you're my only queen
I'd turn my back on all mankind to be here for your needs.
