Lars Eriksson - If I was king today lyrics

rate me

If I was king today

I would stray away

With money in my pockets, singing my song

I would search for the land

That once fell out of my hand

A long time ago when I was a child

I would ask people: Do you know of this land,

Or do you know of someone who has re-conquered it?

Early mornings

Or sunset evenings

I think I see a glimpse of what I’m searching

We’re not finished here

This will all disappear

Like a memory from a past life, it will not be here

Many people will say

They’ve found the only way

But they’re not individuals, they are sheep

And I don’t search for fools

They can go to their own schools

I think I’ll drink some coffee in the sun instead

And they have not found truth

Truth is nowhere to be found

And it doesn’t cost a dime, it’s very cheap

All you need is yourself

And of course everything else

Give the one who speaks the truth a horse

To me it seems that death

Is just a thing with your last breath

And that life goes on and on and on and on

If you’re looking for answers

All you will get is doubt

The only thing worthwhile is learning to live, and forgive

And I am king today

Every day I stray away

With money in pockets,

singing my song
