Story behind the song
I always felt it was important to have a song which is sorta "my story", so this is it. And "Kings" is short for Kingswood, the town where I'm from. The lyrics are pretty self-explanatory, but i wanted there to be pain and hope expressed.
Lyrics
This is the story of Kings’ Sweetheart This is the story of Kings’ Sweetheart Tears and bruises straight from the womb You’d think he’d heard them arguing through Born into a world filled with joy Held in his mother’s arms, a precious little boy He was an angel with his dark side held in His tattoos on the inside of his skin A quiet rebellion slowly building Uniting the phoenix and the voice within *chorus* This is the story of Kings’ Sweetheart Everybody knows my name Gifted and cursed right from the start Life is just a lonely game Who can you trust and who really cares Make this world a better place I’m shouting so loud but there’s nobody there Shattered innocence written on my face But there’s something in my voice tonight I guess bravery makes ya feel alright Starved himself paranoid, never quite thin Wouldn’t ride bikes lest he end up like him Whose absence was so loud it would never leave So he shielded his heart with the scars on his sleeve Words are such weapons, who needs sticks and stones? A childhood passivist hit back fully grown But he used his vulnerablity to flesh out his bones So maybe that smile isn’t just for show *chorus* Conversations with a knife, so close to the edge He would have jumped if not for his mother’s help Now it’s a day to day struggle to cherish his life But I’m learning to deal as I’m learning to fly... to fly... to fly... fly... *chorus* But there’s something in my voice tonight I guess bravery makes ya feel alright
