A Wilhelm Scream - The King Is Dead lyrics

The knife or the rope or the lemon, this brain and sky

The sight of the drop got me off the roof

Hey, the garage looks cleaner when you look at it sideways from high

To finally admit we are born alone and that your only one's got an only one of their own

We'll get the right sun block for the nice explosions

Oh, the king is dead

To absolve the joy from me is to erase what made me a slave

I'm a king to be

I traded my life for art and the guilt is weighing down my arms

Tell me again what a monster is give me the words to describe

Can you tell me what the use of endorphins is when my city dies at night?

Take away the sentence of house arrest and watch me ruin it right

Put me in the back of an ambulance cause my city dies tonight

I see the levity of every meeting of the minds

I lie to myself

It's my right to do

I'm separated like an elevator door for privacy from my eyes

To finally admit we are born alone and that your only one's got another robot to take the throne

Heartless of the world deny the king is dead

Fuck the king is dead

Heartless with your burning eyes

The king is dead

Fuck the king is dead

To wade through the virus of your lies is to cheat it through

Death is only in my eyes

And the sinking feeling came over me and it said never again, never again

The king is dead

Tell me again what a monster is cause my city dies tonight
