lirik lagu dawes - king of the never-wills
[verse 1]
i watched you hold court with the graduate class of your fan club
those same tired stories at the end of your favorite bar
and to give ’em a bit of suspense
you tell them in the present tense
as if you believe that’s the person you somehow still are
[verse 2]
the assumption was always that you were a little too special
to pay the same share of the dues that all of us owe
you convinced us to change up the plan
and prеpare the road for the man
instеad of just simply preparing the man for the road
[chorus]
well, everything goes out of fashion
you went way over that hill
you couldn’t go on as a has~been
you had to be king of the never~wills
[verse 3]
you used to say that my beers were a bit too expensive
to get to the heart of what drove a true seeker to drink
and after we both forced a laugh
your eyes tried to take that joke back
once you could tell that i knew that’s what you really think
[chorus]
how did this catastrophe happen?
and why is it happening still?
you couldn’t go on as a has~been
you had to be king of the never~wills
[verse 4]
as we walked to my car, we both heard a small pack of coyotes
telling the neighborhood they all found something to eat
and after the howls died away
you sobered up only to say
“it’s too late to be anything we never wanted to be”
[chorus]
i dropped you at hillhurst and franklin
to let the long night go in for the k!ll
you couldn’t go on as a has~been
you had to be king of the never~wills
[verse 5]
and now you’re the heart of a story that goes on without you
we’ve distilled your whole person to only the best memories
you’re a fixture at all open mics
the kids asked me if we were alike
but when i look in the mirror, yours is the face that i see
[chorus]
and it’s worse than i could’ve imagined
as i lift up my glass to get filled
i refuse to go on as a has~been
i’d rather be king of the never~wills
i’d rather be king of the never~wills
i’d rather be king of the never~wills
