Lyrics

[Verse 1]
There's a king upon the throne
He's the king there all alone
He seems troubled and a little sad
Just when he thought that he was glad
To be the ruler of the earth
Could it be, it wasn't worth
More than nothing?
[Verse 2]
From the day that he was born
In his side, there was a thorn
He just couldn't find the key
To be happy and be free
He felt forced to wear the crown
Slowly, it will drag him down
In to nothing
[Verse 3]
One more drink and you are learning how to fly
Everything just perfect, once you reach the sky
Pop another pill, don't wanna leave your dream
Forget about the days of when you swam upstream
And don't you care too much about you feel inside
It is probably nothing
[Verse 4]
I never told you 'bout my dream
How I saw us as a team
We would free the universe
With a chorus and a verse
We were gonna make a change
But like how every dream is strange
It's also nothing
[Verse 5]
What was goin' through your mind
What kind of truth did you find
What did you see from the top
That would finally make you stop
Did it give peace to your soul?
Like you reached your final goal?
Or just nothing?
[Verse 6]
One more drink and you are learning how to fly
Everything just perfect, once you reach the sky
Pop another pill, don't wanna leave your dream
Forget about the days of when you swam upstream
And don't you care too much 'bout what you feel inside
It is probably nothing
[Verse 7]
On and on, on the road, never-ending
Keep a smile up, make sure you're pretending
It's been a long while since you ate the pain
[Verse 8]
On and on, you're no fish in the water
But you're slowly on your way to the slaughter
Before you know, everything's too late
[Verse 9]
One more drink and you are learning how to fly
Everything just perfect, once you reach the sky
Pop another pill, don't wanna leave your dream
Forget about the days of when you swam upstream
And as I hear your song play on the radio
A certain sadness in me always starts to grow
Will I ever understand the reason why
The melody spank me but wanna smile and cry
And all the things you make me feel inside
Are anything but nothing
