We say tonight
No going back
Nothing seems right
Stuck in the past
When am I, when am I
Gonna start living?
When am I, when am I
Gonna move on?
When am I, when am I
Gonna kill this feeling?
When am I, when am I
Gonna stop this dreaming?
When I was king, I was king
We had everything
(When am I, when am I
Gonna start living?)
When I was king, I was king
We had everything
(When am I, when am I
Gonna start living?)
Don't wanna go
I'm holding on tight
Something to live for
Making our night
When I was king, I was king
We had everything
(When am I, when am I
Gonna start living?)
When I was king, I was king
We had everything
(When am I, when am I
Gonna start living?)
When I was king, I was king, I was king
If I go down, I will go down fighting
I go down, down like lightning
If I go down, I will go down fighting
I go down, down like lightning
If I go down, I will go down fighting
I go down, down like lightning
Yeah I was king
When am I, when am I
Gonna start living?
When am I, when am I
Gonna move on?
When am I, when am I
Gonna kill this feeling?
When am I, when am I
Gonna stop this dreaming?
When I was king, I was king, when I was king
When I was king, I was king
We had everything
(When am I, when am I
Gonna start living?)
Yeah, I was king
