King of the World (feat. Conor Oberst)

At

Ten in the morning

I was laughing at something

At the airport terminalAt

Nine in the evening

I was sitting

Crying to you

Over the phoneWhile

Passing the border

From a state

To another

Filled with people

Whom I couldn't help

To relate toAnd we

Stopped a while

At a roadside restaurant

Where the waitress was sitting outside

Smoking in her carShe had that

Look of total

Fear in her eyes

And as we drove away from there

She looked at me

And she smiledI keep

Running around

Trying to find the ground

But my head is in the stars

And my feet are in the skyWell I'm

Nobody's baby

I'm everybody's girl

I'm the queen of nothing

I'm the king

Of the worldAnd once you asked me

What was my biggest fear

That things would always

Remain so unclearThat

One day I'd wake up

All alone

With a big family

And emptiness deep in

My bonesThat I would be so blinded

Turn a deaf ear

That my fake laugh would suddenly sound

SincereNow I wasn't

Born for anything

Wasn't born

To say anything

I'm just here now

And soon I'll be goneNo I'm

Nobody's baby

I'm everybody's girl

I'm the queen of nothing

I'm the king

Of the worldNow

Every day

There's a short

Intermission

While I sleep

They start dimming

The lightsBut I've seen everything

I ever want to see

Screaming "Fire!" in a theater

People taking their seatsWatch it all go down

Like a stone in a stream

If you fall for your reflection

You will drown

In a dreamTell me something real

Tell me something true

I just want to feel

There's something left

That I can doBut I'm

Nobody's baby

I'm everybody's girl

I'm the queen of nothing

I'm the king

Of the world
