King of Everything Lyrics

Put down the booze
Let the demons win the fight
Dropped my gloves to the ground
You know I'm sorry
For the times I made you cry
I made an art of letting you down

I used to say
It's only me I'm hurting
But I saw you on the stairs
The kid was crying
And the dogs were howling
And a siren filled the air

What's the word on the street
Have I lost my crown
Or will I be king again
What's the word on the street
Have I lost my crown
Or will I be king of everything

Tempted myself time and time again
Like self destruction was so cool
I mocked your tears and I scarred your heart
I blamed the past and I blamed you

Standing outside of me
Looking down

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
