King nothing

        Wish I may

        Wish I might

        Have this I wish tonight

        Are you satisfied?

        Dig for gold

        Dig for fame

        You dig to make your name

        Are you pacified?

        

        All the wants you waste

        All the things you've chased



        Then it all crashes down

        And you break your crown

        And you point your finger, but there's no one around

        Just want one thing

        Just to play the King

        But the castle's crumbled and you're left with just a name

        Where's your crown, King Nothing?

        Where's your crown?

        

        Hot and cold

        Bought and sold

        A heart as hard as gold

        Yeah! Are you satisfied?

        Wish I might

        Wish I may

        You wish your life away

        Are you pacified?

        

        All the wants you waste

        All the things you've chased



        Then it all crashes down

        And you break your crown

        And you point your finger, but there's no one around

        Just want one thing

        Just to play the King

        But the castle's crumbled and you're left with just a name

        Where's your crown, King Nothing?

        Where's your crown?

        

        Wish I may, wish I might

        Have this wish, I wish tonight

        I want that star, I want it now

        I want it all and I don't care how

        

        Careful what you wish

        Careful what you say

        Careful what you wish, you may regret it

        Careful what you wish, you just might get it

        

        Then it all crashes down

        And you break your crown

        And you point your finger, but there's no one around

        Just want one thing

        Just to play the King

        But the castle's crumbled and you're left with just a name

        Where's your crown, King Nothing?

        

        Oh, You're just nothing

        Where's your crown King Nothing?

        Oh, you're just nothing

        Absolutely nothing



        Off to never, never land
