A King With No Crown Lyrics by Anubis

Hitchhiking to Byzantium

2014

It's all superiority;
Your wildest dreams
A yearning notoriety;
Knife in back, end justifies the means
Live atop the highest peak
Plated in gold
The altitude will make you weak;
As you fall you'll see your name dissolve
A fantasy that will not hide
The casualty that lives inside
Reality will always be
A lingering memory
It's all so very saleable;
With a lie on your face
The taste you bring is unbearable -
But taste can be so easily erased
Ambition lies in distant dreams;
You're a king with no crown -
As you're left to walk the same old streets
With the pain that haunts you in your cold hometown
A fantasy that will not hide
The casualty that lives inside
Reality will always be
A lingering memory
(Keys Solo)
A fantasy that will not hide
The casualty that lives inside
Reality will always be
A lingering memory
The time will come and you will know -
The demons come to overthrow;
When all of this will cease to be;
A memory to you and me
