Lyrics
King Of Sorrow
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I'm crying everyone's tears
And there inside our private war
I died the night before
And all of these remnants of joy and disaster
What am I supposed to do?
I want to cook you a soup that warms your soul
But nothing would change
Nothing would change at all
It's just a day that brings it all about
Just another day
And nothing's any good
The DJ's playing the same song
I have so much to do
I have to carry on
I wonder if this grief will ever let me go
I feel like
I am the king
Of sorrow
The king of sorrow
I suppose I could just walk away
Will I disappoint my future if I stay?
It's just a day that brings it all about
Just another day
And nothing's any good
The DJ's playing the same song
I have so much to do
I have to carry on
I wonder, will this grief ever be gone?
Will it ever go?
I'm the king
Of sorrow
The king of sorrow
I'm crying everyone's tears
I have already paid for all my future sins
There's nothing anyone can say to take this away
It's just another day
And nothing's any good
I'm the king
Of sorrow
King of sorrow
