Lyrics
"King of Fools"
In a world, where we lie in the middle
Of the dark she cries just a little
She reveals whats weighing on her mind
She sings a song about a bird in the hand
Trying to get me, Trying to get me
To understand the way she feels inside
She said she loved me and walked away
With a ticket in her hand and nothing left to say....and now
I am the king, I'm the king of fools
behold your majesty
I am the king, I'm the king of fools
behold what's left of me
'cause she made it clear today
the bird in my hand was about to fly away
She said, ain't it funny how lessons learned in life
Are always gained for losing
And I said baby baby baby don't
look at me with eyes that see my sins
She turned around feet to ground, made my heart pound,
She's gonna really let me down now
And as she walked away I heard the voices like a chorus coming in
And it goes on and on, on, on, on, on, on and on and on in my head
I am the king, I'm the king of fools
behold your majesty
I am the king, I'm the king of fools
behold whats left of me
'cause she made it clear today
the bird in my hand was about to fly away
I am the king
I am the king
I am the king
I am the king
