Take these promises and walk to the beaten shore
A strangers handshake as cold as the sea below
When I was given more than I could afford
I ran away
I ran away

And I once was king of the world
But now live inside of a whale
And I once was king of the world

Raging waters they will come when we least will know
A sleeping giant awakes as I look ashore
Can we erase the future
just let it swim overboard
'Cause I ran away
I ran away

And I once was king of the world
But now live inside of a whale
And I thought I ran the world
But I’m lost without you

Oooh...Oooh...Oooh...
So can we erase the future
And let it swim overboard
If I was to die tomorrow
To live with more than I need
You’re coming with me
And I once was king of the world
But now live inside of a whale
And I thought I ran the world
But I’m lost without you
