King of the World Songtext
von Young Rising Sons

Whoa-oh, whoa-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh

Cold as winter in the dead of July
That bitter chill don′t just live in my mind
And I can see us takin' over the world
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh (yeah!)

I know loss, I′ve looked pain in the eye
I've seen the demons that live in the night
But if I was king, if I was king of the world
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh

All the tales that have never been told
Build up fires to keep away the cold
We'll sing songs that will never get old
We′ll be here forever

We′ll rule the world together, forever
With hearts of gold, who needs any treasure?
We'll take our time just living our lives
Our castle in the sky if I was king of the world (hey!)


I was a stranger, held my hand to my eyes
Blindly walking on a street full of lies
But I found truth buried deep inside of my bones
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh (yeah!)

Lonely nights shaking villains and thieves
So I keep fighting with my heart on my sleeve
But if I was king, if I was king of the world
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh

All the tales that have never been told
Build up fires to keep away the cold
We′ll sing songs that will never get old
We'll be here forever

We′ll rule the world together, forever
With hearts of gold, who needs any treasure?
We'll take our time just living our lives
Our castle in the sky if I was king of the world

Then one day the leaves changed
And all that was once grey
It seemed to just fade away
I′m feeling so alive in this castle in the sky


All the tales that have never been told
Build up fires to keep away the cold
We'll sing songs that will never get old
We'll be here forever

We′ll rule the world together, forever
With hearts of gold, who needs any treasure?
We′ll take our time just living our lives
Our castle in the sky if I was king of the world

We'll rule the world together, forever (hey!)
With hearts of gold, who needs any treasure?
We′ll take our time just living our lives
Our castle in the sky if I was king of the world (yeah!)
