"King Of Nothing"
Power is that drug
An aphrodisiac
Some inject it in their blood
To never give it back
Dreaming of that day
Of showing the world who’s boss
Taking his rightful place
No matter what the cost
No he doesn’t give a damn
Ooh he’s making big plans
Ooh a castle made of sand
He is the king
The king of nothing
The best in the world
At showing greed
He’s got to win
No matter what the means
The top of the world
All alone
Number one
At being empty
Who does he think he is?
Like he’s the chosen one
Making an iron fist
While wearing a velvet glove
Finally he’s on top
Holding all the cards
But everything he thinks he’s got
Can’t fill an empty heart
No, he doesn’t give a damn
Ooh he’s making big plans
Ooh a throne built on quicksand
He is the king
The king of nothing
The best in the world
At showing greed
He’s got to win
No matter what the means
The top of the world
All alone
Number one
At being empty
He is the king
The king of nothing
The best in the world
At showing greed
He’s got to win
No matter what the means
The top of the world
All alone
Number one
At being empty
He’s me
When I lose humility
Maybe he’s me when I forget what it all means
