There's nothing that you can say To make the taste in his mouth go away So just accept that you've had your day and leave His heart was open when yours was closed But you were stuck on the road you chose And where you're headed nobody knows but me 'Cause when the king of the mountain falls He has the furthest to fall of all It leaves him broken, it leaves him small for years So when the cameras have turned away And all the actors forget the play Then no one cares what the king may say you'll see It's probably too late to say That there was probably a better way But now you're down and it's down you'll stay for good
