Mr. King
Lyricist:Pallot Nerina
Good days, bad days, I've had a few of those Same old story, I know how this song goes At least I did but now I'm not so sure Nothing's in its place, nothing's certain anymore
Birds fly, trees sway, why can't I be like that? Happy knowing what I am, in fact and I'll even be But truth has been obscured I am only human and I'm always wanting more
And the world is a place and they say it's on our side But I wonder, is there comfort in those moments when we die? Now I see, Mr. King, it was in the books you gave me Which I read, disbelieving, thinking poets are depressed Oh, Mr. king, I have changed, I confess

Now, I've got ten things lined up on a shelf Reasons to be cheerful for myself I don't know why you're showing me the sky You say you see heaven, I see hell but want to try
And the world is a place and I pray it's on my side But I'd find greater comfort if I just lay down and died I don't know what's become of a girl who once knew sunshine What's become of a girl who knew sorrow but was strong
Hey, Mr. King, you were right, all along Mr. King you were right Oh, Mr. King, you were right, I was wrong
