King
Caliban Lyrics

Bow down and hail to the king!
I demand ultimate respect and honor as the ruler of this kingdom.

I don't care what people think
I am confident in my power and do not concern myself with the opinions of others.

Bow down with the face in the mud
I expect absolute submission and obedience from my subjects, who should be humbled in my presence.

I'm larger than life, I don't give a fuck
I am a grandiose figure beyond mortal limitations, and I do not care about anything or anyone except myself.

The throne is mine,
I have seized and maintain control over the highest position of authority in this kingdom.

The crown fits fine
I wear the symbol of my rulership perfectly, as if it were made for me.

I couldn't care less about your crying
I am indifferent to the pain and suffering of others, whom I see as weak and inferior.

My rug is red,
My luxurious possessions and surroundings are a sign of my wealth and status.

Golden my bed
I sleep in a bed of opulence and decadence, befitting my stature and power.

I have everything but regrets
I have attained all the riches, pleasures, and accomplishments I ever wanted, and have no remorse for my ruthless pursuit of power.

Nothing to hold on
Despite my wealth and power, I feel empty and lost inside.

King of kingdom gone
As the sole ruler of this kingdom, I am its apex and its downfall at the same time.

I'm all alone
Despite my status and wealth, I have isolated myself from others and have no true companionship or love.

I live among gods, I dine in hell
My life is like that of a god or a demon, with supreme power and control over others, but also an insatiable appetite for dominance and destruction.

I'm on top of the world and I never fail
I am invincible and infallible, always winning and never facing defeat or repercussions.

But within my towering walls
Despite my grandeur and strength, I am still trapped in my own self-imposed isolation and loneliness.

I sing a song about an empty soul
Despite my success and power, I am tormented by a deep-seated sense of emptiness and lack of fulfillment.

Where I walk There's light Where I speak There's quiet
I radiate my own aura of supremacy and fear, which commands respect and obedience from those around me.

Darkness inside Silence cries
Despite the grand facade I present to the world, I face my own inner demons and despair in complete silence and isolation.

Is this what I long to be!?
I question my own identity and desires, wondering if my pursuit of power and conquest were worth the cost of my own happiness and fulfillment.

Who have I become? A king of kingdom gone I'm trying to hold on
I am struggling to come to terms with my own identity and fate, as I realize that my reign as king has come to an end and I must face the consequences of my actions.

I'm all alone I'm all alone I'm all alone
Despite all my riches and victories, I am completely alone and without the love and companionship of others, left to confront my own emptiness and despair.
