[Refrain:]
My kingdom is small and my statue's a lie
If you wanna see the truth, you can look me in the eye
Said, my kingdom is small and my statue's a lie
If you wanna see the truth, you can look me in the eye

[Verse 1:]
This wall I have constructed is larger than myself
And I only really meant for it to be the one to tell
That I'm better than the rest of all the peasants in the town
I can tell 'em to fuck off, or I can burn 'em to the ground
I don't ask for your respect, merely a sign that you have bought
This construction I have worked on to create what I am not
It's an ego trip in wonderland, but not on LSD
I don't need to fool myself to alter reality

[Refrain:]
I said my kingdom is small and my statue's a lie
If you wanna see the truth, you can look me in the eye
Said, my kingdom is small and my statue's a lie
If you wanna see the truth, just look me in the eye

[Verse 2:]
No drunkard's gonna tell me how to be the way I am
I don't need that grade school bullshit to define what I command
I am better than I know that I could ever really be
And I'm not gonna budge if you don't know that I am me
I reflect all of the truth that I know within my head
'Cause if I let you know I'm weak then I'll defy what I have said
You can't expose me as a liar if you never even know
So I sit here in my castle with a memory to show that

[Refrain:]
My kingdom is small and my statue's a lie
If you wanna see the truth, you can look me in the eye
I said, my kingdom is small and my statue's a lie
If you wanna see the truth, you can look me in the eye

[Pre-Chorus:]
Tear down the walls
Find that I'm pretty pathetic
It won't be that hard

[Chorus:]
My kingdom is small and my statue's a lie
If you wanna see the truth, you can look me in the eye
I said, my kingdom is small and my statue's a lie
If you wanna see the truth, you can look me in the eye
Said, my kingdom is small and my statue's a lie
If you wanna see the truth, you can look me in the eye
I said, my kingdom is small and my statue's a lie
If you wanna see the truth, you can look me in the eye
Tear down the walls!
[Outro:]
In a matter of speaking
