King of Nothing Lyrics

I tried my best to make it
To be, to break, to change things
For the better, love enlaboured
But still you carry me along
Can't anybody make it stop?
Break every bone my body's got
Rebuild, rebuild, rebuild
But never quite complete

I am only
Half as lonely
As I'd like to be
Shattered mirror
Water and blood
Drink down every part of me

I was the wind that carried you along
Don't leave me
Here, with the fear I tore asunder
Please believe I tried
Though a king of nothing
I've a crown made of gold and scorn
And though you could never hear me
I was trying, I was trying, I was trying

Not every step comes easy
Prints in the ash, but fading
Faster than my heart is racing
Why won't you carry me along?
I am asunder, I am wrong
In iron skies reflected, gone
I knew the future and the burden made me strong

I am only
Half as lonely (Half as lonely)
As I'd like to be (As I would like to finally be)
Shattered mirror
Water and blood (Water and blood)
Drink down every part of me

I was the wind that carried you along
Don't leave me
Here, with the fear I tore asunder
Please believe I tried
Though a king of nothing
I've a crown made of gold and scorn
And though you could never hear me
I was trying, I was trying, I was trying

The silver lining
Heart arising
Sun providing
Faith surviving
Redefining
No denying
No decrying
I was trying all the same

I was the wind that carried you along
Don't leave me
Here, with the fear I tore asunder
Please believe I tried
Though a king of nothing
I've a crown made of gold and scorn
And though you could never hear me
I was trying, I was trying, know that
I was the wind that carried you along
Don't leave me
Here, with the fear I tore asunder
Please believe I tried
Though a king of nothing see
This crown that I have forged
And though you could never hear me
I was trying, I'm was trying
I'm still trying
