Текст пісні
I'm greatest at the things I do
In all the universe
So it was no surprise the way
He found me at his worst
The word of my magnificence
Had circled back to me
So when he begged an audience
I bowed to flattery
A little praise was all it took
For him to bend my will
I felt so proud I'd crowned him king
His tyranny my thrill
He was in exile from his throne
A monarch long deposed
The flame of vengeance in his eyes
At matters he proposed
I could not give his kingdom back
I knew what he would do
To those who cast aside his chains
A master overthrew
But talents that are mine to wield
Are greater than a king
I'd craft a copy of his realm
An artificial thing
It was alike in every way
Except in scale and size
A tiny box that he could rule
With iron fist and lies
He got to work at once with them
The once and future king
A tiny execution first
A reign of terror brings
And then the screams inside the box
Made my creation real
Amid my shattered vanity
I had to learn to feel
But when I came to rescue them
I found they'd broken free
They built their cities in his bones
In regicidal glee
