Текст песни: East + перевод

I set out to rule the world

With only a paper shield and a wooden sword

No mountain dare stand in my way

Even the oceans tremble in my wake

The tide is brave, but always retreats

Even the sand, it cowers under my feet

My kingdom towers above it all

While I sleep safe and sound in my cardboard walls

Now I bear little resemblance to the king I once was

I bear little resemblance to the king I could become

Maybe paper is paper, maybe kids will be kids-

Lord, I want to remember how to feel like I did

So I draw my sword with the morning sun

I summon the moon as soon as the day is done

The clouds march on, on my command

Even the rain, it falls according to plan

The trees bow down and give their leaves

I humbly accept their offerings of peace

The years wore on and changed my heart

The leading role for a smaller part

Now I bear little resemblance to the king I once was

I bear little resemblance to the king I could become

Maybe paper is paper, maybe kids will be kids

But Lord, I want to remember how to feel like i did

'cause I bear little resemblance to the king I once was

I bear little resemblance to the king I could become

Maybe paper is paper, maybe kids will be kids

But Lord, I want to remember how to feel like I did

I set out to rule the world

With only a paper shield and a wooden sword
