I am a cold and drowning man Living like a whisper in my skin Skating on the surface of God's master plan Waiting for my real life to begin I've traveled round the world And tried a hundred different things Hoping to find heaven But the angels never sing No one ever died and made me king No one ever died and made me king No one ever died and made me king I am a quietly burning man Searching for a way to quench my thirst Praying that a cool rain falls upon the land Waiting for the gathered clouds to burst I'm painted in a corner And wound up like a spring Everything I've gained in life It doesn't mean a thing No one ever died and made me king No one ever died and made me king No one ever died and made me king No one ever died and made me king No one ever died and made me king No one ever died and made me king No one ever died...
