A train in the distant I hear the whistle A lonely tune calling, telling where the wind is blowing At the station And I'm just waiting Spent my whole life not growing Now the whole world is coming I don't know why we're fighting I just know that I'm going A chip on my shoulder Everyone's getting older Heroes die young, that's fine I'm still a child inside Kid, you are a solider now The wind upon which all his words ride out Kid, you're killing dragons now With crown and guns we'll keep our fortress strong The best of the greatest The greatest but few Those doomed to be heroes The king wants you The king wants you 16 years, my mother's son Now a big boy with big guns Marching, falling, getting up Never knew how to stop Wrote a letter Said things are better Taught me how to fight and die I wish I knew how to live and lie I don't know where we're going It's better to go without knowing I'm ready and willing Literally make a killing Dead today, it's all the same As long as someone knows my name Kid, you are a solider now The wind upon which all his words ride out Kid, you're killing dragons now With crown and guns we'll keep our fortress strong The best of the greatest The greatest but few Those doomed to be heroes The king wants you The king wants you The king wants you The king wants you Left, right, left Left, right, left Look to the king All eyes on the king All hail the king The best of the greatest The greatest but few Those doomed to be heroes The king wants you The king wants you The king wants you The king wants you
