I don't need to fall at your feet
Just cause you cut me to the bone
And I won't miss the way that you kissed me
We were never caught in stone
And if I don't listen to the talk of the town
Then maybe I can fool myself
I'll get over you, I know I will
I'll pretend my ship's not taken
And I'll tell myself I'm over you
Cause I'm the king I wish for
I'm the king I wish for
Baby
Baby
I am the king I wish for
Thinking
I refuse to give in to my blues
That's not how it's gonna be
And I deny the tears in my eyes
I don't wanna let you see
No
That you have made a hole in my heart
And now I'm in pain
I've got to fool myself
I'll get over you, I know I will
I'll pretend my ship's not taken
And I'll tell myself I'm over you
Cause I'm the king I wish for
I'll get over you, I know I will
I'll pretend my ship's not taken
And I'll tell myself I'm over you
Cause I'm the king I wish for
Baby
I am the king I wish for
I'll pretend my ship's not taken
Said I'm the king I wish for
Nothing comes with the same finish
Of what it meant to me
Why do I wish for this?

You say I wish for pain
I everywhere else it turns out
I know I will
I'll pretend my ship's not sinking
And I'll tell myself I'm over you
Cause I'm the king of wishful thinking
I am the king of wishful thinking
I'll get over you
I know I will
You made a hole in my heart
But I won't shed a tear for you
I'll be the king of wishful thinking
I'll get over you
I'll pretend my heart's still beating
Cause I've got no more tears for you
I am the king of wishful thinking
I am the king of wishful thinking
No!
No!
