You Were The King, Now You’re Unconscious
by Yellowcard
There is no light in sight
Only a ton of pain
Only our legs will carry you
Carry you to the end!
Only a ton of pain
Only our legs will carry you
Carry you to the end!
Live your life for yourself
Or live for the struggle at best
Or live for the struggle at best
(Chorus)
Just don't let it strangle you
Just don't let it strangle you!
Just don't let it strangle you
Just don't let it strangle you!
And after all this
No one will carry you home
And without a thought, let your guard fall to the ground
Thought you were the king, but now it's gone
Taste the air as you put it into your arms
Try to savior it for one more sigh
No one will carry you home
And without a thought, let your guard fall to the ground
Thought you were the king, but now it's gone
Taste the air as you put it into your arms
Try to savior it for one more sigh
The theif of the battle
A metaphor for this life
You never see it hit you
Until it smashes you in the face!
A metaphor for this life
You never see it hit you
Until it smashes you in the face!
You try as best as you can
And I knock you down again
And I knock you down again
(Chorus)
Just don't let it strangle you!
Just don't let it strangle you!
Just don't let it strangle you!
Just don't let it strangle you!
And after all this
No one will carry you home
And without a thought, let your guard fall to the ground
Thought you were the king, but now it's gone
Taste the air as you put it into your arms
Try to savior it for one more sigh
No one will carry you home
And without a thought, let your guard fall to the ground
Thought you were the king, but now it's gone
Taste the air as you put it into your arms
Try to savior it for one more sigh
(Bridge)
Get up!
Get up now
Get up right now!
I scream to myself
Get up!
Get up now
Get up right now!
I scream to myself
Get up!
Get up now
Get up right now!
Why do I scream at myself?
Get up now
Get up right now!
Why do I scream at myself?
And after all this
No one will carry you home
And without a thought, let your guard fall to the ground
Thought you were the king, but now it's gone
Taste the air as you put it into your arms
Try to savior it for one more sigh
No one will carry you home
And without a thought, let your guard fall to the ground
Thought you were the king, but now it's gone
Taste the air as you put it into your arms
Try to savior it for one more sigh
