[Verse 1]
I didn't know you'd
Ask for me
Strangers exchanging vanities
Oh, keep your mind at ease
I would have thought there's someone else
I think that you'd be better by yourself
Stop calling me for help

[Chorus]
When the knights abandon their posts
Just when you needed them most
I'm close enough, baby
As long as it's easy

[Verse 2]
Nights alone with your friends
Lead your feet to the edge
I'm not even sorry
Empty castles don't pretend
