King of Anything

Just heard this, funny thing is there are a couple of lines in this that are SO how I'm feeling at the moment ... ... ... ...


Keep drinking coffee, stare me down across the table


While I look outside


So many things I’d say if only I were able


But I just keep quiet and count the cars that pass by



You’ve got opinions, man


We’re all entitled to ‘em, but I never asked


So let me thank you for your time, and try not to waste anymore of mine


And get out of here fast



I hate to break it to you babe, but I’m not drowning


There’s no one here to save



Who cares if you disagree?


You are not me


Who made you king of anything?


So you dare tell me who to be?


Who died and made you king of anything?



You sound so innocent, all full of good intent


Swear you know best


But you expect me to jump up on board with you


And ride off into your delusional sunset



I’m not the one who’s lost with no direction


But you’ll never see



You’re so busy making maps with my name on them in all caps


You got the talking down, just not the listening



And who cares if you disagree?


You are not me


Who made you king of anything?


So you dare tell me who to be?


Who died and made you king of anything?



All my life I’ve tried to make everybody happy


While I just hurt and hide


Waiting for someone to tell me it’s my turn to decide



Who cares if you disagree?


You are not me


Who made you king of anything?


So you dare tell me who to be?


Who died and made you king of anything?



Who cares if you disagree?


You are not me


Who made you king of anything?


So you dare tell me who to be?


Who died and made you king of anything?



Let me hold your crown, babe.
