You Were the King, Now You're Unconscious Lyrics

There is no light in sight only a ton of pain
only your legs will carry you to the end
live your life for yourself or live for the struggle at best
just dont let it strangle you just dont let it strangle you


and after all this no one will carry you home
and without a thought you let your guard fall to the ground
thought you were the king but now its gone
taste the air as you pull it in your arms
try to saver it for one more song

The theif of the battle a metaphor for this life
you never see it upon you untill it smashes you in the face
you try as best you can and life knocks you down again
dont let it strangle you

get up get up now get up right now
i scream to myself

here are more correct lyrics:

There is no light in sight Only a tunnel of pain Only your legs will carry you Carry you to the end

Live your full for yourself Or live for the struggle at best Just don't let it strangle you Just don't let it strangle you

And after all this No one will carry you home And without a thought You let your guard fall to the ground Thought you were the king But now it's gone Taste the air as you pull it in your lungs Try to savour it for one more song

The thief of the battle A metaphor for this life You never see it hit you Until it smashes you in the face

You try as best you can And life knocks you down again Just don't let it strangle you Just don't let it strangle you

And after all this No one will carry you home And without a thought You let your guard fall to the ground Thought you were the king But now it's gone Taste the air as you pull it in your lungs Try to savour it for one more song

Get up Get up now Get up right now I scream to myself

Get up Get up now Get up right now I scream to myself

And after all this No one will carry you home And without a thought You let your guard fall to the ground Thought you were the king But now it's gone Taste the air as you pull it in your lungs Try to savour it for one more song Try to savour it for one more song

Awesome intro. 0:00 - 1:48 very nice.

I agree with ChaDMcBaDD. I love the drum build up to the guitar intro.

I think this song is badass. my interpretation of it is that it is about not giving up in life, no matter how low you feel everything will get better eventually. Sometimes it takes something really heartbreaking and disastrous to cause it, but as they say, whatever doesn't kill you makes you stronger. Just live life for yourself, cause in the end you really only have yourself to rely on. Very good lyrics

This song is great. I agree with misfit1573 and the lyrics are great especially at the end. Those last two lines are really powerful.
