lyrics

One day within the head of a man, a kingdom was fabricated for the vision of a better version of himself.
In the kingdom, there is a version of you. You're living another life. Winner of the crown, you occupy the throne by mine.
Saddle our beloved quetzalcoatlus, witness badass cumulous clouds collect and tower in the sky.
Living in the kingdom gets me down. I never want to go anywhere else at all.
Oh boy, you really got in there good. We're darkening all the time. I never want to leave my head but now I've got a plan.
With two tiny hinges of titanium, I'll construct a doorway in my skull. That's when you evacuate my cranium to live out here with me. Although compared to kingdom life, it might be dull.
There is no preventing the happenings I'm not ready for but that's the lay of the land and further more, no way to force the ones I need.
