House Of Kings

Well I mean it when I tell ya

You'll be broken by the world you carry

Watch the vultures pick your bones and

Burn your house down in forgotten valley

There's a hillside, you won't climb it

When you're left out - what you doin' here?

Take the long road before midnight

It's a long way to the next frontier

You stole the moon from the sky

A shadow prince in the house of kings

Now you've got nowhere to go

Caught in a wild wind

Stand on a high mountain top

The city lights are a diamond ring

Maybe they'll all turn to glass

Leaving us wondering

There's no angel on your doorstep

That will save you from the road you travel

Keep it rollin' for a long time

Watch confusion on their face unravel

There's a poster on a white wall

And you're dressed up like a showroom dummy

But you sit there like a blind man

Pockets empty, you ain't got no money

You stole the moon from the sky

A shadow prince in the house of kings

Now you've got nowhere to go

Caught in a wild wind

Stand on a high mountain top

The city lights are a diamond ring

Maybe they'll all turn to glass

Leaving us wondering

You stole the moon from the sky

A shadow prince in the house of kings

Now you've got nowhere to go

Caught in a wild wind

Stand on a high mountain top

The city lights are a diamond ring

Maybe they'll all turn to glass
