This Is My House (And I Am The King)

Story Behind The Song

Another dream-inspired song that explores a troubled past, a family legacy.

Song Description

Is a House a Home, or a Jailcell? What kind of King rules over a Kingdom of One, after the jesters have fled, and the court is broken? The four walls of a castle are just stones, but the heart should not be made of stone.

Lyrics

"It should be mine," you said
"It should be mine, not yours."
You threw a rock right at my head.
Thrown to the floor right in my bed!

This is my house, and I am the King!
This is my house and I own everything!
This is my house and these are the walls!
I walk alone through the rooms and the halls.
