Lyrics
Intro
Yeah
Crown of shadows on my head
Mm
Verse 1
Woke up in a palace made of broken screens
Every ghost I carry got a different name
Climbed the tower just to find the door was locked
Burning bridges till the bridge became a game
Threw my last coin in the fountain of regret
Every hero in my head turned out to be a liar
Chiseled my own name into the marble throne
Now I'm sitting in the rain with kingdom fire
Pre-Chorus
They call me
King of nothing
King of everything I lost
Chorus
King of God
I wear the scepter made of rust and bone
King of God
The angels threw their halos at the stone
King of God
Divine but I was never really home
King of God
King of God
Post-Chorus
So cold
So cold
Throne of gold
Throne of gold
Verse 2
Used to pray to static skies for a sign
Now I preach a gospel made of midnight dread
Every scripture that I wrote with shaking hands
Got a footnote saying I was already dead
Built an altar out of all my broken vows
Lit a candle for the things I couldn't save
If the heavens want a king then here I stand
With a hollow heart dug from a hollow grave
Pre-Chorus
They call me
King of nothing
King of everything I lost
Chorus
King of God
I wear the scepter made of rust and bone
King of God
The angels threw their halos at the stone
King of God
Divine but I was never really home
King of God
King of God
Post-Chorus
So cold
So cold
Throne of gold
Throne of gold
Bridge
Fell so far the fall became a throne
Shattered crowns still sparkle when you're gone
I am what remains when faith is overthrown
Every light I lit has turned to stone
Chorus
King of God
I wear the scepter made of rust and bone
King of God
The angels threw their halos at the stone
King of God
Divine but I was never really home
King of God
King of God
Post-Chorus
So cold
So cold
Throne of gold
Throne of gold
