lyrics

All my limbs are withered up,
I'm thirsty for the truth,
and though I sip it's not enough,
For to ease my ruin

So I'll build a trench around myself,
To hide from my own mind,
And withdraw from a bank account,
That wasn't really mine

My kingdom for a king,
My kingdom for a king,
Make me great again, I need you, please,
Won't somebody come rule me

You can wear a mask to scare my friends,
and tell them you're a murderer,
Then they'll come to you on fear of death,
and trust your every word

My kingdom for a king,
My kingdom for a king,
Make me great again, I need you, please,
Won't somebody come rule me
