The King’s Gambit Songtext
von Wüstenberg

Again I hear my teeth grind
There are things that have to be
Knight to F3

I′m staring into the days to come
I beat the drums of war
Pawn to E4

It's not until the time runs out
That I start to feel alive
Bishop to B5

I am both black and white
I play against myself all the time
The characters wear my skin
So what will happen if I win
What if I choose to lose
What if I choose to lose
The King′s Gambit

I'm so entangled - every day
Release is kept for heaven
Rook to H7


Terrified to miss the right move
I'm balancing on a twine
Queen to A5
Queen to A5

I am both black and white
I play against myself all the time
The characters wear my skin
So what will happen if I win
What if I choose to lose
What if I choose to lose
The King′s Gambit

And finally it′s king to C4
No need to take it that hard unless
You can explain why life should be more
Than just a game of chess

I am both black and white
I play against myself all the time
The characters wear my skin
So what will happen if I win
What if I choose to lose
What if I choose to lose
What if I choose to lose
The King's Gambit
