House of Kings
Well I mean it when I tell ya
You'll be broken by the world you carry
Watch the vultures pick your bones and
Burn your house down in forgotten valley
There's a hillside, you won't climb it
When you're left out - what you doin' here?
Take the long road before midnight
It's a long way to the next frontier
You stole the moon from the sky
A shadow prince in the house of kings
Now you've got nowhere to go
Caught in a wild wind
Stand on a high mountain top
The city lights are a diamond ring
Maybe they'll all turn to glass
Leaving us wondering
There's no angel on your doorstep
That will save you from the road you travel
Keep it rollin' for a long time
Watch confusion on their face unravel
There's a poster on a white wall
And you're dressed up like a showroom dummy
But you sit there like a blind man
Pockets empty, you ain't got no money
You'll be broken by the world you carry
Watch the vultures pick your bones and
Burn your house down in forgotten valley
There's a hillside, you won't climb it
When you're left out - what you doin' here?
Take the long road before midnight
It's a long way to the next frontier
You stole the moon from the sky
A shadow prince in the house of kings
Now you've got nowhere to go
Caught in a wild wind
Stand on a high mountain top
The city lights are a diamond ring
Maybe they'll all turn to glass
Leaving us wondering
There's no angel on your doorstep
That will save you from the road you travel
Keep it rollin' for a long time
Watch confusion on their face unravel
There's a poster on a white wall
And you're dressed up like a showroom dummy
But you sit there like a blind man
Pockets empty, you ain't got no money
