Kingdom for a Heart

[shankie]

I was listening to this, and suddenly thought of Bruce. So I'm sharing the lyrics, and, as always, I can get you the song if you'd like to hear it.


What the hell are you standing there for, expecting
me to help you, when I'm down myself
Waiting my saviour, my world is flooding over, there's
no room for air, I can't breathe, I would give a kingdom
for one more day

I'd give - a kingdom
For one more day as a king of your world
I'd give a kingdom, for (just) one more day

What the hell am I waiting here for, expecting you to
come and give away your life
Just for a moment of my time, have a hole where I
should have a heart, I'm made of wood, I'm falling
apart, I would give a kingdom for one more day.

I'd give - a kingdom
For one more day as a king of your world
I'd give a kingdom, for one more day.

I'd give it all for a heart
if I was a King I would give away my kingdom
Treasures and crowns wouldn't mean a thing
If I only had a heart, if I only had a heart...

Now I know I will never love you, I'm (a) man without
a heart, I'm not allowed to feel human feelings
I'm king of the land, I'm a ruler of seas, I'd give it
away in a moment. If I only had one moment

I'd give - a kingdom
I'd give a kingdom
I'd give - a kingdom to just one more day

I'd give it all for a heart
if I was a King I would give away my kingdom
Treasures and crowns wouldn't mean a thing
If I only had a heart

I'd give it all for a heart
if I was a King I would give away my kingdom
Treasures and crowns wouldn't mean a thing
If I only had a heart, if I only had a heart [repeat]

Oh fantasy metal, I love you so. Also, I'm a hopeless romantic.

P.S. I'm totally obsessed with this song. ::dances::

You think Batman doesn't have a heart? Or do you think he simply doesn't know he has one?

He likes to think he doesn't, sometimes. He likes to think a lot of things.

Aw, yeah, that's Batman alright. Specifically it reminded me of the Earth and Sky fic series http://jen-in-japan.livejournal.com/14189.html and when he was trying to quit being Batman (the Azreal arc).

Ooh, yeah, it totally does. I wasn't thinking about Jen's story, but yeah. :)
