King |
How long can you stand |
Tightening up |
Avoiding the fight |
Avoiding the truth |
Tighten the smile |
Tighten the lie |
Will you get what you want |
To be cursed with your dreams |
I hope for your sake |
Something gets in the way |
How long can you stand |
Living under the lens |
The kiss of success |
The ensuing, all consuming, mess |
Message of love |
They arrive everyday |
People you touch |
Wasting away |
People you don’t know |
Give you no choice |
And you’re sick to your stomach |
At the sound of your voice |
And the shape of your face |
And the sound of your name |
They send you pictures of yourself |
It’s someone you don’t know |
And they call you a genius |
Cause you’re easier to sell |
But the fire in your belly |
That gave you the songs |
Is suddenly gone |
And you feel like a fake |
Is that what you want? |
I hope for your sake |
You’ve got what it takes |
You’ve got what it takes |
To be spoilt to death |
