First Aid Kit

First Aid Kit - King of the World lyrics

rate me

Feat Conor Oberst

At 10 in the morning

I was laughing at something

At the airport terminal

At 9 in the evening

I was sitting crying to you over the phone

Well passing the border from a state to another

Filled with people whom I couldn't help to relate to

And we stopped a while at a roadside restaurant

Where the waitress was sitting outside smoking in her car

She had that look of, fear in her eyes

And as we drove away from there she looked at me and

she smiled.

Hook 1:

I keep running around

Trying to find the ground

But my head is in the stars

My feet are in the sky

Well I'm nobody's baby

I'm everybody's girl

I'm the Queen of nothing

I'm the Ki-iiiing of the world.

Well once you asked me well what's my biggest fear

That things would always remain so unclear

That one day I'd wake up all alone

With a big family and emptiness sleeping in my bones

That I would be so blinded, turn into fear

And that my fake laugh would suddenly sound sincere

Hook 2:

Now I wasn't born for anything

Wasn't born to say anything

I'm just here now and soon I'll be gone

I'm nobody's baby

I'm everybody's girl

I'm the Queen of nothing

I'm the Ki-iiiing of the world.

[Conor Oberst :]

Now everyday there's a

While I sleep they start dimming the lights

Well I've seen everything I ever want to see

Screaming fire in the theater, people taking their seats

Watch it all go down like the stone in the stream

Fall for your reflection, drown in a dream.

Hook 3:

Tell me something real

Tell me something true

I just want to feel there's something left that I can do

But I'm nobody's baby,

I'm everybody's girl

I'm the Queen of nothing

I'm the Ki-iiiing of the world.
