Lyrics for Song: King Of The Thing
Lyrics for Album: Risen [2001]
It's been a long, long time since I lost myself.
Put my pride down on the table, put my fear on the shelf.
So I bought myself a throne to reside and let myself go.
But I've traveled much too far, where I've gone, I'll never know.
What a long, long time...
Long, long time.
It's been a little old while since I felt so fine.
Wanderin' in the rain...
Losing my mind.
What a long, long time.
What a long, long time.
My days I've spent relaxin' turned to nights relaxin' too
A thousand eyes upon me, but my sights are missing you.
So this time I swear I will loosen my grip.
On past times and bad lines and meaningless trips.
What a long, long time.
Long, long time.
It's been a little old while since I felt so fine.
Wanderin' in the rain,
Losing my mind.
What a long, long time.
What a long, long time.
So, over and over mile signs pass by my side
The more you try to find yourself, the more you tend to hide
Behind these - forest trees - and greens that blind your eyes
To lounge upon that throne I bought,
Confer there with the wise.
What a long, long time.
Long, long time.
It's been a little old while since I felt so fine.
Wanderin' in the rain,
Losing my mind.
What a long, long time,
Long time...yeah.
So here we appear, the rest lost themselves in a pit of fear.
For who? What can I do? But let them all come through the wall
And though some oppose, many of these things I know,
I'll stay here alone, and lose myself on the riverways of days.
I'm coming home.
What a long, long time.
Long, long time.
It's been a little old while since I felt so fine.
Wanderin' in the rain,
Losing my mind
What a long, long time.
What a long, long time.

King Of The Thing
O.A.R.'s 2001 single "King Of The Thing" serves as a defining track from their debut album, Risen. The song exemplifies the band's signature blend of alternative rock and pop sensibilities that characterized their early career. With its driving rhythm and melodic structure, the recording captures the energetic spirit of the early 2000s indie rock scene. As a staple of their discography, the track remains a representative example of how O.A.R. balanced anthemic choruses with introspective songwriting during their formative years. It stands as a key song in their catalog, reflecting the group's evolution from their initial sound to their broader musical identity. |
