Letras de The Man Who Would Be King

As he travels on a beast of burden
Moving up along the mountainside
As he gazes looking down the valley
No regrets but his pride
As he journeys across mountain passes
Insignificance sweeps over him
His reflection of the beauty around him
Feeling empty inside

He is running from his wildest thoughts
He is running from his everything
He is looking now to find something
Hoping he can be saved

He′s searching for the answer now
It's something that he′s managed to avoid up to now
Real conviction that he craves
He needs to find the answer sooner than later

Pushed himself to the limits
He had to strive for all the harder things in life
But what's the cost he's giving now?
His life, his time are the only things that he has
Life is not a rehearsal
All he has is the one chance to get it right
Living really is the only way to know

Maybe one day he′ll forgive him what he′s done
About the pain of lying too early in the brain
Despairly no good to hide away
Honesty will be his only way
Understand no good to run away
Honesty will be his saving grace

He tries to make his peace with God
All is forgivable but he's left a little late
Trying something that he′s not
Is it possible to change such a lot?He should have found another way

But the good book says an eye for an eye
And reflecting on decisions that were made
Are the judgments that will haunt until his grave
No one has the right to take another life
But in his mind he had no choice so be it

Destiny, no good to hide away
Heaven's now will be his only way
Understand, no good to run away
Heaven′s now will be his saving grace
Destiny, no good to hide away
Heaven's now will be his only way
Understand, no good to run away
Heaven′s now will be his saving grace

Far far away
The man who would be king
Far far away
The man who would be king
So far away
The man who would be king
So far away
The man who would be king
Far far away
The man who would be king
