King of None

There a king sits on a throne made of worthless gold Speaks of courage and hides behind his walls For he has power, he has men to tear the world apart But not a queen to rule the kingdom of his heart For he has conquered, he has seen cities rise and fall But in his dreams he finds that love is all he wants For he has everything to the eyes of those who are watching him But in his heart he feels empty in the dark For all he has gained, even more he has lost Surrounded by jewels a poor man he has become When the crown he has worn Is broken and he sees himself Then he will know Know he was king of none King of none Now he wanders in the dark of his forgotten hope Full of anger for the love he never fought And every triumph of the life he led has fallen short For it was love that truly mattered most For all he has gained everything he has lost Surrounded by all that he has not what he wants When the crown he has worn Is broken and he sees himself Then he will know Know he was king of none King of none
