You’re only king for a day
Then it all falls away
So why waste your time
Chasing things that you can’t take away
You’re only king for a day
Then it all falls away
So why waste your time
Chasing things that you can’t take away
See kids you’re only King for a day
On top of the world then the world moves away
To stay close to the glow of bigger flames
Same game chasing limelight only leads to pain
I’m serious others delirious
Thinking they can maintain exterior frame
For an indefinite period
But the shine on the outside is by its very nature inferior
Interior parts in particular heart
Are what characterizes caricatures and fake disguises
So lets pick apart the ties that bind us
Expose lies in various guises
Ride rhythms in tempos so timeless
Singing soul songs that serve to remind us
That blindness extends to more then the iris
And what the world can’t see has worth that is priceless
You’re only king for a day
Then it all falls away
So why waste your time
Chasing things that you can’t take away
It seems like we simply cant afford it
See it come to us for free but then we simply abort it
Absorb it and take it all in
When its too much to carry a merry heart is like a medicine
Let them in everyone that’s been pushed away
Its inconvenient I’ve seen it in the worst way
What does the verse say What does it profit a man
We’re like dust in the wind building our castles in the sand
Understand we’re not a brand
We’re not stocks and bonds or pensions plans
Expensive and costly is the grief
They want to put a price on love but it only seems cheap
Reach beneath like into the water
And find the treasure in somebody it goes much further
I hear a murmur and it sounds like a voice from the deep
Its says we worthy to speak surely to keep
