lyrics

If you could only see me
Exactly where I am
You wouldn't want to be me
I can assure you of that

I'm not the guy to run with
I'll pull you off the line
I'll break you and destroy you
Given time

He's King Midas with a curse
He's King Midas in reverse
He's King Midas with a curse
He's King Midas in reverse

It's plain to see it's hopeless
Goin' on the way we are
And even though I lose you
You'll be better off by far

He's not the man to hold your trust
Everything he touches turns to dust
Nothing he can do is right
He'd even like to sleep at night

I wish someone would find me
And help me gain control
Before I lose my reason
And my soul

He's King Midas with a curse
He's King Midas in reverse
He's King Midas with a curse
He's King Midas in reverse

He's King Midas with a curse
(All he touches turns to dust)
He's Kind Midas in reverse
(All that glitters turns to rust)
He's King Midas with a curse
(All he touches turns to dust)
He's King Midas in reverse
(All that glitters turns to)
