Cover art for Treason! Animals. lyrics by Franz Ferdinand

This reminds me a lot of false bravado or false confidence. This person has established himself king of pretty much everything, but despite how narcissistic and confident he is, he seems uneasy without any supporters or friends. Therefore, even though he is completely absorbed into himself, he is still weak on the inside, needing others to affirm his status.

"Hey friends, when will you get here? Hey friends, I need to hear voices. I don't care what you talk about. Hey friends, I just need to hear voices."

A peek inside the brain of a megalomaniac.
