Lyrics

I?ve got no feeling in my hands,
They don?t respond to my commands
I thought I?d feel much better sober.
A grain of sand, a grain of salt,
Is it is or ain?t my fault?
Not getting wiser, only older

I ran with lions, not a scrape
Took all the taking I could take
The fear of waking holds me now
Feels good to be held anyhow.

Hey have you heard the news?
The king took off his ruling shoes
His throne is just an empty chair
No royal ass is perched up there
Since the king took off his ruling shoes.

I turned and walked towards the door,
I?ve walked through many times before
You never know what?s out there, hiding.
I take a step, I celebrate,
Convince myself it?s not too late
While I waste my life deciding.

I ran with lions, held my ground
I screamed and never made a sound
The fear of waking feels so real
At least there?s something I can feel.

Hey have you heard the news?
The king took off his ruling shoes
His throne is just an empty chair
No royal ass is perched up there
Since the king took off his ruling shoes.

Long live the king, the king ain?t dead
He moved to Florida instead
With geriatrics in the sun
They?ll never guess he was the one.

I ran with lions, set them free
Then got the shit kicked out of me
The fear of waking held me then,
I?ll never go to sleep again.

Hey have you heard the news?
The king took off his ruling shoes
His throne is just an empty chair
No royal ass is perched up there
Hey have you heard the news?
The king took off his ruling shoes
His throne is just an empty chair
No royal ass is perched up there

Hey have you heard the news?
Hey have you heard the news?
The king took off his ruling shoes...
