King of pain
All hail
The King of Pain
So disconnected
It's become lame
Friends words burn
Like acid fire
Billowing smoke
Just grows higher
Fortuitous find
Or an act of good will
Goes unnoticed
When you're looking for a kill
I'm an easy prey
Go ahead and take your shot
And if you get your mark
Just leave my body to rot
I've got nothing to offer
Better off dead
Save yourself
From this messed up head
Don't be waiting
For a twenty one gun salute
Save your tears for someone
Not covered in soot
I had my chance
And washed it down the drain
So bow down, but don't worship
