The King of Nowhere Lyrics by Deadlights (Post-Hardcore)

The Uncanny Valley

0

I bury myself inside
A fortress in my mind
I am the King of Nowhere
A castle in the sky
Why do I make these choices?
I’ve lost it, ticking all the boxes
Don’t think about what you say
Just blurt it out past the brain
Into the audience
So oblivious
“Let me explain,” Pass the blame
Hail Mary it all away
Then crawl back in to your second skin
Why do I make these choices?
It remains unclear
I follow familiar voices
& then disappear
I lock myself in a castle in the air
& Pretend that I’m not there
I bury myself inside
A fortress in my mind
Where the dead walk and the living fly
Where no one ever tries to find me
Where I can be free from it all
Burdens
I don’t want to know, just let me die complacent
Deep within my mind
The walls are barricaded
I’m condemned to this wasteland
Why do I make these choices?
I’ve lost it, ticking all the boxes
I keep my eyes down
Just me and my crown
The king of Nowhere
Why do I make these choices?
It remains unclear
I follow familiar voices
& then disappear
I lock myself in a castle in the air
& Pretend that I’m not there
Or anywhere
Don’t think about what you say
Just blurt it out past the brain
Then disappear into the air, the King of Nowhere
Don’t think about what you say
Just blurt it out past the brain
Into the audience
So oblivious
I bury myself inside
A fortress in my mind
I am the King of Nowhere
A castle in the sky
