King Of Nothing Lyrics - Phish

I am the king of nothing 

The emperor of emptiness 

I don't have a castle 

And I don't wear a crown 

I recall as a small child 

The dreams that I once had 

Yes, I recall as a small boy 

Those dreams which drove me mad 

'cause I once found myself a kingdom 

It was not too far away 

I once found myself a kingdom 

But somehow I let it slip away 

So I am the king of nothing 

The emperor of emptiness 

And I don't have a castle 

And I don't have a crown 

And I recall as a small child 

Those dreams I once had 

I recall as a small boy 

Those dreams which drove me mad 

I once found myself a kingdom 

And I thought that it was here to stay 

Yes, I once found myself a kingdom 

But somehow I let it slip away 

So I am the king of nothing 

The emperor of emptiness 

And I don't have a castle 

And I don't wear a crown
