King Of Pain lyrics

[Verse 1]
There's a little black spot on the sun today
It's the same old thing as yesterday
There's a black hat caught in a high tree top
There's a flag pole rag and the wind won't stop

[Chorus]
I have stood here before inside the pouring rain
With the world turning circles running 'round my brain
I guess I'm always hoping that you'll end this reign
But it's my destiny to be the king of pain

[Verse 2]
There's a little black spot on the sun today
(That's my soul up there)
It's the same old thing as yesterday
(That's my soul up there)
There's a black hat caught in a high tree top
(That's my soul up there)
There's a flag pole rag and the wind won't stop
(That's my soul up there)

[Chorus]
I have stood here before inside the pouring rain
With the world turning circles running 'round my brain
I guess I'm always hoping that you'll end this reign
But it's my destiny to be the king of pain
[Verse 3]
There's a fossil that's trapped in a high cliff's wall
(That's my soul up there)
There's a dead salmon frozen in a waterfall
(That's my soul up there)
There's a blue whale beached by a springtime's ebb
(That's my soul up there)
There's a butterfly trapped in a spider's web
(That's my soul up there)

[Chorus]
I have stood here before inside the pouring rain
With the world turning circles running 'round my brain
I guess I'm always hoping that you'll end this reign
But it's my destiny to be the king of pain

[Bridge 1]
There's a king on a throne with his eyes torn out
There's a blind man looking for a shadow of doubt
There's a rich man sleeping on a golden bed
There's a skeleton choking on a crust of bread

[Interlude]

[Bridge 2]
There's a red fox torn by a huntsman's pack
There's a black-winged gull with a broken back
There's a little black spot on the sun today
It's the same old thing as yesterday
[Chorus]
I have stood here before inside the pouring rain
With the world turning circles running 'round my brain
I guess I always thought you could end this reign
But it's my destiny to be the king of pain

[Outro]
King of pain
King of pain
King of pain
I will always be king of pain
(I have stood here before inside the pouring rain)
I will always be king of pain
(With the world turning circles running 'round my brain)
I will always be king of pain
(I guess I always thought you could end this reign)
I will always be king of pain
(But it's my destiny to be the king of pain)
I will always be king of pain
I will always be king of pain
(I have stood here before inside the pouring rain)
I will always be king of pain
(With the world turning circles running 'round my brain)
King of pain
(I guess I always thought you could end this reign)
King of pain
(But it's my destiny to be the king of pain)
King of pain
