Tribute to MJ for the August 2009 Song Challenge
Lyrics
King Of Pop
Verse 1
Woke up and heard the news
You had to go away
You had so much to give
I always thought you's stay
What did they give to you
To take away the pain?
Something to help you sleep
Now you won't wake up again.
Verse 2
Who will they turn to now
When everything goes wrong?
No-one to talk to now
You lived your life in song.
Tried to cover up the pain
Of a childhood gone wrong
Nothing stays the same
When you just want to belong
Chorus
You were born a Prince
And you grew up to become the King of Pop
And we all believed the songs would never stop
We traced you from the bottom to the top
Now it's time to go and rest
verse 3
We took all we could bear
And still we wanted more
Now we can't hold back the tears
Just want it like before
Now it's your voice that I hear
When I turn the TV on
You hid yourself for years
But now the mask is gone
