King Lyrics


Years & Years King


[Verse 1]
I caught you watching me under the light
Can I be your line?
They say it's easy to leave you behind
I don't wanna try

[Pre-Chorus]
Cut cover, take that test
Hold courage to your chest
Don't wanna wait for you
Don't wanna have to lose
All that I compromised to feel another high
I've got to keep it down tonight

[Chorus]
And oh, oh, oh
I was a king under your control
And oh, oh, oh
I wanna feel like you've let me go
So let me go

[Verse 2]
Don't you remember how I used to like
Being on the line?
I dreamed you dreamed of me calling out my name
Is it worth the price?

[Pre-Chorus]
Cut cover, take that test
Hold courage to your chest
Don't wanna wait for you
Don't wanna have to lose
All that I compromised to feel another high
I've got to keep it down tonight

[Chorus]
And oh, oh, oh
I was a king under your control
And oh, oh, oh
I wanna feel like you've let me go
So let me go

[Bridge]
I had to break myself to carry on
No love and no admission
Take this from me tonight
Oh, let's fight (x3)
Oh...

[Chorus]
And oh, oh, oh
I was a king under your control
And oh, oh, oh
I wanna feel like you've let me go
So let me go

[Outro]
Let go, let go, let go of everything (x4)
