King lyrics

[Verse 1]
Take me away from the girls and the boys
Smother my ears, help me shut out the noise
'Cause all I wanna do is run away from me
Far and beyond from what I wanted to be
'Cause I pray for the day I can never be found
Another voice in my head is making terrible sounds
Saying, "Throw out the cash and the money that you earn
Go back to the ash of the books that you burned", yeah

[Chorus]
If I could have it all, I could be king
Instead, I hear the noise of everything
If I could have it all, I could be king

[Verse 2]
Last night, I was drinking like a man that was trying to drown
But I wasn't sinking
I was swimming myself
Straight for the ground
Falling apart when there's no one around
I got so sick, so sick
No sign of anyone, so lay it on thick
I got the medicine
If I could have it all, I could be
I could be a motherf*ckin' king
[Chorus]
Instead, I hear the noise of everything
If I could have it all, I could be king
Instead, I hear the noise of everything
If I could have it all, I could be king

[Solo]

[Outro]
(Why don't you see me dying?)
If I could have it all, I could be king
(Why don't you see me dying?)
Instead, I hear the noise of everything
(Why don't you see me dying?)
Don't wanna be what runs under my skin
If I could have it all, I could be
