Lyrics

The King

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.

Although I may have faltered

I'm just a man

For I've been broken

Time and time again

But in your moments of doubt

When there's nowhere left to run

Within these tears of darkness

I would steal the light from the sun

I may not be a king

But I'll carry you through it all

Your shelter from the storm

To catch you when you fall

I may not be a king

But I'll give you my world

All and everything

Enslaved and condemned

By the fears that hold your hand

Abandoned and betrayed

Time and time again

But in your moments of doubt

So empty and afraid

When it all falls to pieces

I will not walk away

I may not be a king

But I'll carry you through it all

Your shelter from the storm

Catch you when you fall

I may not be a king

But I'll give you my world

All and everything

For I may not be a king

But I'll carry you through it all

Your shelter from the storm

Catch you when you fall

I may not be the king

But I'll give you my world

All and everything
