No King Lyrics - The Dying Things We Live For - Like Moths To Flames

You become transparent when you're held to the light 

Even at your worst I tried to make the wrongs right 

You pulled the wool over my eyes 

Sick of burning at both ends 

You push to break the bend 

Never someone I'll defend 

Could've been should've been 

You say it was never supposed to be this way 

Built up to come crashing down with your name 

Could've been should've been 

You say it was never supposed to be this way 

Return to dust the same way that you came 

You should know better than anyone 

The past can never be undone 

Blank stares from the people you once knew 

Your downfall is overdue 

You're no king 

A broken crown sits at your feet 

Pieces of what you used to be 

You only see what you want to see 

You're no king 

A broken crown sits at your feet 

You're no king 

A broken crown sits at your feet 

You become transparent when you're held to the light 

I think it's time you learn to take loss in stride and walk away from what's mine 

Rock bottom and you're falling faster every day 

You'll find no compassion 

You'll find no sympathy 

You should know better than anyone 

The past can never be undone 

Blank stares from the people you once knew 

Your downfall is overdue 

You're no king 

A broken crown sits at your feet 

Pieces of what you used to be 

You only see what you want to see 

You're no king 

A broken crown sits at your feet 

Pieces of what you used to be 

You only see what you want to see 

Return to dust the same way that you came 

There is no compassion 

No sympathy 

Return to dust the same way that you came 

You're no fucking king
