I'm a proud and haughty man
Scoffer by name
And I take what I'm given
And throw it away
I had a sad revelation
Just today
I took a precious angel
And led her astray
What have I done
I've broken the one
Thing in the world
That I love the most
I'm the king of the castle
But it's battered and worn
And my flag is burning
Smattered and torn
I led her out to the desert
And left her alone
To wander in circles
Looking for home
What have I done
I've broken the one
Thing in the world
That I love the most
Take it away
Take it away
Let me go back
And do it again
I'm a proud and haughty man
Scoffer by name
And I take what I'm given
And throw it away
