King Of The World |
At ten in the morning |
I was laughing at something at the airport terminal |
At nine in the evening |
I was sitting crying to you over the phone |
While passing the border from a state to another |
Filled with people whom I couldn’t help to relate to |
And we stopped awhile at a roadside restaurant |
Where the waitress was sitting outside smoking in her car |
She had that look of total fear in her eyes |
And as we drove away from there she looked at me and she smiled |
I keep running around |
Trying to find the ground |
But my head is in the stars |
And my feet are in the sky |
Oh I’m nobody’s baby |
I’m everybody’s girl |
I’m the queen of nothing |
I’m the king of the world |
And once you asked me well what’s my biggest fear |
That things would always remain so unclear |
That one day I’d wake up all alone |
With a big family and emptiness deep in my bones |
That I would be so blinded, turn a deaf ear |
And that my fake laugh would suddenly sound sincere |
Now I wasn’t born for anything |
Wasn’t born to say anything |
I’m just here now and soon I’ll be gone |
[Oh I’m nobody’s baby |
I’m everybody’s girl] |
I’m the queen of nothing |
I’m the king of the world |
Now everyday there’s a short intermission |
While I sleep they start dimming the lights |
But I’ve seen everything I ever want to see |
Screaming «Fire!» |
in a theater, people taking their seats |
Watch it all go down like a stone in a stream |
If you fall for your reflection you will drown in a dream |
Tell me something real |
Tell me something true |
I just want to feel there’s something left that I can do |
But I’m nobody’s baby |
I’m everybody’s girl |
I’m the queen of nothing |
I’m the king of the world |
