Heir Apparent Lyrics

[Verse 1]
There's more of you and me
Than a desperate thief could ever set free
Now I'm your burden

[Pre-Chorus]
Selfishness is inherited
Like skinny lips and tattoos (What could I do?)

[Chorus]
I'm sorry for leaving
I'm sorry with one foot out the door
I'm unapologetically sorry for everything

[Verse 2]
All of your best attributes
Look better on me than they ever did on you
We could be each other's other burden

[Pre-Chorus]
Selfishness is inherited
So, what could I do? (What could I do?)
I didn't catch it kissing Jenny in the closet
I didn't learn it at school

[Chorus]
I'm sorry you need me
For hanging on your arm, a child you can't ignore
I'm unapologetically sorry for everything
I'm sorry for aging
Growing more and more disinterested in celebrity and politic
I'm unapologetically more
Maybe more than anything, sorry you love me

[Outro]
Heir apparent to the throne
The king of all alone
Heir apparent to the throne
The king of all alone
Heir apparent to the throne
The king of all alone
Heir apparent to the throne
The king of all alone
Heir apparent to the throne
The king of all alone
Heir apparent to the throne
The king of all alone
Heir apparent to the throne
The king of all alone
Heir apparent to the throne
The king of all alone
Heir apparent to the throne
The king of all alone
Heir apparent to the throne
The king of all alone
Heir apparent to the throne
The king of all alone
Heir apparent to the throne

[Pre-Chorus]
Selfishness is inherited

[Pre-Chorus]
Selfishness is inherited

I didn't catch it kissing Jenny in the closet
I didn't learn it at school

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.
