King of the Quiet

Drop

I built a palace out of empty rooms

I built a palace out of empty rooms

Verse 1

Midnight in the marrow of me

Lanterns low along the corridor

I keep a kingdom nobody can see

Colder than the marble on the moor

Pre-Chorus

Call me the keeper

Call me the ghost

Call me whatever hurts the most

Chorus

Nobody lives here anymore

Nobody knocks and nobody calls

I rule a ruined house of war

Nobody lives here anymore

Drop

Nobody lives here anymore

Nobody lives here anymore

Verse 2

Banners sagging where the rats run free

A throne of splinters and a crown of rust

My shadow kneels and bows to me

Then crumbles quietly into the dust

Pre-Chorus

Name me the villain

Name me the stone

Name me the thing you leave alone

Chorus

Nobody lives here anymore

Nobody knocks and nobody calls

I rule a ruined house of war

Nobody lives here anymore

Bridge

Long live the hollow

Long live the ache

Long live the silence

I refuse to break

Breakdown

Crown me

Crown me

King of the quiet

King of the cold

Chorus

Nobody lives here anymore

Nobody knocks and nobody calls

I rule a ruined house of war

Nobody lives here anymore

Drop

Nobody lives here anymore

Nobody lives here anymore
