lyrics

King of the World

Out of your mind
You were hurt but not bleeding
Checking the time
Of the boat that was leaving
Here
The sailors cry
In the night
Drinking themselves into nothing is safe in the dark

You couldn’t believe
That the road wasn’t monsooned
The man in the moon
Wasn’t quite what they told you
Life wasn’t hard
You cried in the sun
Waiting around ‘til the ladies line up in the park

King of the world
We could see you
Sailing away

King of the world
Could it be you
Turning the night to day?

King of the world
Was it hard to
Throw it all away?
King of the world

You left us behind
We were hurt but not grieving
Our passage of time
Meant the boat wasn’t leaving
For us
The sailors sigh
In the night
Drinking ourselves into nothing is safe in the dark
