Long Live The King Lyrics

Chorus:

Close my eyes as I fall

Thinking "I showed them all!"

They can't take this away from me now (from me now)

Hear them all cheer for him

Singing LONG LIVE THE KING

They can't take this away

They can't take this away from me now...

Verse 1:

Yes, feels like I'm fresh out the bonfire

Heart of a lion, ironfists of a scarred fighter

Part tiger, glowing eyes of a darksider

As I balance on a barbed wire through the hard times (I'm...) (STILL)

Persistent and patient

Dressed up in confidence, twisted and crazy

The kids tell the tale of a renegade spirit

They all thought went away, but he never did, did he?

Nah, I'm still here and my vision's still alive

I've already been to Oz, looked the wizard in the eyes

Like I know I've got a heart but something's missing in my life

So my eyes pointed up, blowing kisses at the sky

As I dedicate this to all my angels who never made it

And say a prayer for the brave ones who kept the flame lit

Through our darkest hours and toss some flowers

Inspired by their journey, we embark on ours... (Yeah! )

Chorus.

Verse 2:

No matter what they tell ya this is really me

Trying to hold my own, in a town where they won't let you breathe

Where loyalty means a guillotine

And they even pick our pennies out the wishing well just to kill our dreams

Always trying to make sure my confidence wearing thin

Like the DEA, they don't want to see the hero win

But I still get up on that stage like I don't fear a thing

Try to keep me on the ground, bitch, I'll grow a pair of wings

And spread 'em wide, flying high over the city

Where people still look down on me like I don't really fit in (BUT)

I don't give a shit though, wouldn't mind getting grimey

So give me your best competitor (and) I'll show you where to find me

And if I ever fail I just pray that I did

What I could, put a smile (up)on the face of my kids

Told my wife that I loved her everyday, that I'll live

For her love eternally, all rise for the king... (Nooow...)

Chorus.
