[Verse 1]
Every night
You whine about the rain, yeah
And you cry
On every single shoulder come your way, yeah, yeah
Get your serotonin
I know where this is goin', yeah
This attention's just like gettin' paid, yeah, yeah, yeah

[Verse 2]
And you walk
Where you should run away, yeah, yeah, yeah
To your talking mirror
That will always bring you pain, yeah, yeah
What the hell you thinkin'?
Get yourself a shrink, and, yeah
Maybe you'll be better off someday
Yeah, yeah, yeah

[Chorus]
And you've got your head in the clouds
In your sandcastle, wearin' the crown, and
And now you're findin'
That all this climbin' up's for naught
You're the king of Lonely Town
[Verse 3]
So you find
A throne without a king
And you ride
That wave, and it devours everything, yeah, yeah
Desperately cling on, to your
Narcissistic kingdom
Tell yourself it isn't crumbling
Oh, oh, oh

[Verse 4]
And you lost
Yourself in playin' God
And it cost
You all the self-awareness that you've got, yeah, yeah
Get your cult assembled
And build yourself a temple, to the
Handheld religion that we're taught
Oh, oh, oh

[Chorus]
And you've got your head in the clouds
In your sandcastle, wearin' the crown, and
And now you're findin'
That all this climbin' up's for naught
You're the king of Lonely Town
[Bridge]
Don't be fooled by shinin' light
Kid, this shit ain't worth the hype
Down this road a couple times
Got to get this off my chest, yeah
Simple boy in fancy clothes
Hollow but the spotlight glows
It's yourself that you don't know
The human brain was never trained
To pass this ugly test

[Chorus]
You've got your head in the clouds
In your sandcastle, wearin' the crown, and
And now you're findin'
That all this climbin' up's for naught
You're the king...

Got your head in the clouds
In your sandcastle, wearin' the crown, and
And now you're findin'
That all this climbin' up's for naught
You're the king of Lonely Town
