King Nothing Lyrics By Metallica

    wish i may
    wish i might
    have this i wish tonight
    are you satisfied
    dig for gold
    dig for fame
    you dig to make your name
    are you pacified

    pre
    all the wants you waste
    all the things you’ve chased

    then it all crashes down
    and you break your crown
    and you point your finger
    but there’s no one around
    just want one thing
    just to play the king
    but the castle crumbled
    and you’re left with just a name
    where’s your crown king nothing
    where’s your crown

    hot and cold
    bought and sold
    a heart as hard as gold yeah
    are you satisfied
    wish i might
    wish i may
    you wish your life away
    are you pacified

    pre
    all the wants you waste
    all the things you’ve chased

    then it all crashes down
    and you break your crown
    and you point your finger
    but there’s no one around
    just want one thing
    just to play the king
    but the castle crumbled
    and you’re left with just a name
    where’s your crown king nothing
    where’s your crown

    post
    oh nothing
    oh where’s your crown

    i wish i may
    i wish i might
    have this wish i wish tonight
    i want that star
    i want it now
    i want it all and i don’t care how
    careful what you wish
    careful what you say
    careful what you wish
    you may regret it
    careful what you wish
    you just might get it

    then it all crashes down
    and you break your crown
    and you point your finger
    but there’s no one around
    just want one thing
    just to play the king
    but the castle crumbled
    and you’re left with just a name
    where’s your crown king nothing

    nothing
    no you’re just nothing
    where’s your crown king nothing
    no you’re just nothing
    absolutely nothing
    off to never never land
