YEARS & YEARS
"King"
(Olly Alexander / Michael Goldsworthy / Mark Ralph / Dj Andy Smith / Emre Turkmen)

I caught you watching me under the light
Can I realign?
They say it's easy to leave you behind
I don't wanna try

[Pre-Chorus:]
Cut cover, take that test
Hold courage to your chest
Don't wanna wait for you
Don't wanna have to lose all that I've compromised
To feel another high
I've got to keep it down tonight

[Chorus:]
And, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
I was a king under your control
And, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
I wanna feel like you've let me go
So let me go

Don't you remember how I used to like being on the line?
I dreamed you dreamed of me calling out my name
Is it worth the price?

[Pre-Chorus:]
Cut cover, take that test
Hold courage to your chest
Don't wanna wait for you
Don't wanna have to lose all that I've compromised
To feel another high
I've got to keep it down tonight

[Chorus:]
And, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
I was a king under your control
And, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
I wanna feel like you've let me go

[Bridge:]
I had to break myself to carry on
No love and no admission
Take this from me tonight
Oh-oh, let's fight
Oh-oh-oh, let's fight
Oh-oh, let's fight
Oh-oh-oh

[Chorus:]
And, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
I was a king under your control
And, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
I wanna feel like you've let me go
So let me go

[Outro:]
Let go, let go, let go of everything
Let go, let go, let go of everything
Let go, let go, let go of everything
Let go, let go, let go of everything
