Sovereign
I ain't defensive, I ain't going off the deep end
It's just a result of you up and fucking leaving
You never cared that you had me nearly bleeding
But I survived and you got me seething
Sitting on your high horse, staring at the world
Thinking you're the shepherd when you're part of the herd
Sick of saying that you're clever when you never knew a thing
Fuck you then, you're the sovereign king!
A king without a kingdom
A swan without a song
A poet with no pen
A godless prophet
A fighter without the fists
An artist without the heart
Your skin is not so thick
We can all see right through you
Head up so high, it floats above your spine
You walk like you're the king of everything in sight
It's so easy to see the man behind the mask
Terrified and heavy-eyed, your ego slips and cracks
Like a time bomb, ticking and ticking away
It all comes out at the end of the day
Behind closed doors, until you're ready to play
On goes the mask, now to hunt your prey
A king without a kingdom
A swan without a song
A poet with no pen
A godless prophet
A fighter without the fists
An artist without the heart
Your skin is not so thick
We can all see right through you
I can't take this anymore
I won't be what you used me for
I can't take this anymore
A king without a kingdom
A swan without a song
A poet with no pen
A godless prophet
A fighter without the fists
An artist without the heart
Your skin is not so thick
We can all see right through you
It's just a result of you up and fucking leaving
You never cared that you had me nearly bleeding
But I survived and you got me seething
Sitting on your high horse, staring at the world
Thinking you're the shepherd when you're part of the herd
Sick of saying that you're clever when you never knew a thing
Fuck you then, you're the sovereign king!
A king without a kingdom
A swan without a song
A poet with no pen
A godless prophet
A fighter without the fists
An artist without the heart
Your skin is not so thick
We can all see right through you
Head up so high, it floats above your spine
You walk like you're the king of everything in sight
It's so easy to see the man behind the mask
Terrified and heavy-eyed, your ego slips and cracks
Like a time bomb, ticking and ticking away
It all comes out at the end of the day
Behind closed doors, until you're ready to play
On goes the mask, now to hunt your prey
A king without a kingdom
A swan without a song
A poet with no pen
A godless prophet
A fighter without the fists
An artist without the heart
Your skin is not so thick
We can all see right through you
I can't take this anymore
I won't be what you used me for
I can't take this anymore
A king without a kingdom
A swan without a song
A poet with no pen
A godless prophet
A fighter without the fists
An artist without the heart
Your skin is not so thick
We can all see right through you
