John Cale - No King Lyrics

[Woman talking on radio]

The hardest thing I ever had to do is look inside
There was an overwhelming doubt and I swear there was no light
I wanna run, I wanna hide, I wanna get the hell outta here
There's no place to go when you're face to face with the demon that lies within

Where you gonna run?

I begun to realize we are not chose the same
The power of the individual leave no room for a king
Got to be good to myself, and do no others harm
To judge not a soul by the chosen pale of his skin

I see their bones

Wait a minute, what is this I've been fighting for said all my life?
Wait a minute, what is this so many died for said throughout time?
Yea could've be freed the liberty of the evil rounds
Mm I think I know right where to begin, 'tis the heart of me

I wanna look inside

I begun to realize we are not chose the same
The power of the individual leave no room for a king
I've been good to myself, and do no others harm
And judge not a soul by the chosen pale of their skin

Wait a minute, what is this I've been fighting for said all my life?
Wait a minute, what is this so many died for said throughout time?
Yea could've be freed the liberty of the evil rounds
Mm I think I know right where to begin, 'tis the heart of me

Wait a minute, what is this I've been fighting for said all my life?
Wait a minute, what is this so many died for said throughout time?
Yea could've be freed the liberty of the evil rounds
Mm I think I know right where to begin, 'tis the heart of me

Wait a minute, what is this I've been fighting for said all my life?
Wait a minute, what is this so many died for said throughout time?
Yea could've be freed the liberty of the evil rounds
Mm I think I know right where to begin, 'tis the heart of me
