Charlie Hole - There Will Be No King lyrics
Your rating:
Another sunny day in some godforsaken town That man on the mount he said he's enjoying quite a crowd You could sense the expectation as the people gathered round So-called went to speak But the words would not come out His palms they dripped with sweat His mouth was parched and dry Silence stole the show As the seconds passed then bye The crowd they grew impatient He got off and replied He said father this ain't me I just want a normal life So he turned his back on everything The power and the praise He said when you gonna realize It is yourselves you have to safe He told them all the story off the sinner and the saint Said sometimes the road to greatness Will lead you to the cave And we found him in the desert Just trying to get some sleep We told him he should come back home And help the blind to see He said what's wrong with you people Why can't you let me be Can't you find another man To full-fill your prophecy You know I don't mean to disappoint you I don't like to let you down But it's getting kinda weird The way you follow me around And this weight upon my shoulders Really drags me to the ground You can lead a horse to water But you cannot make it drown I don't wanna be your idol I don't wanna be your fool So let me tell you something I don't know anything to you You tell me that your scripture is the evidential truth Just because it's written Doesn't mean that it's the truth Some treat me like a martyr They hang me out to dry The men they come to spit at me The woman come to cry I know that you need something to bring purpose to your life If you're looking for a god You won't find him in the sky So step down from your altars I don't want your offerings Tear down all your paintings And take off your golden rings I haven't come here to wash away your sins There will be no glory, there will be no king There will be no glory, there will be no king There will be no glory, there will be no king Say it There will be no glory, there will be no king
