King of Nothing lyrics
by Phish
[Verse]
I am the king of nothing
The emperor of emptiness
I don't have a castle
And I don't wear a crown
And I recall as a small child
The dreams that I once had
Yes, I recall as a small boy
Those dreams which drove me mad
[Chorus]
'Cause I once found myself a kingdom
It was not too far away
'Cause I once found myself a kingdom
But somehow I let it slip away
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse]
So I am the king of nothing
The emperor of emptiness
And I don't have a castle
And I don't have a crown
And I recall as a small child
Those dreams I once had
And I recall as a small boy
Those dreams which drove me mad
[Chorus]
I once found myself a kingdom
And I thought that it was here to stay
Yes, I once found myself a Kingdom
But somehow I let it slip away
[Outro]
So I am the king of nothing
The emperor of emptiness
And I don't have a castle
And I don't wear a crown
