Lyrics
Taking over this town, they should worry
But these problems aside, I think I taught you well
That we won't run, and we won't run, and we won't run

And in the winter night sky, ships are sailing
Looking down on these bright blue city lights
And they won't wait, and they won't wait, and they won't wait
We're here to stay, we're here to stay, we're here to stay

Howling ghosts, they reappear
In mountains that are stacked with fear
But you're a king and I'm a lionheart
A lionheart

His crown lit up the way as we moved slowly
Past the wondering eyes of the ones that were left behind
Though far away, though far away, though far away
We're still the same, we're still the same, we're still the same

Howling ghosts, they reappear
In mountains that are stacked with fear
But you're a king and I'm a lionheart

And in a sea that's painted black
Creatures lurk below the deck
But you're a king and I'm a lionheart
And as the world comes to an end
I'll be here to hold your hand
'Cause you're my king and I'm your lionheart
A lionheart, a lionheart, a lionheart, a lionheart
A lionheart, a lionheart, a lionheart, a lionheart

Howling ghosts, they reappear
In mountains that are stacked with fear
But you're a king and I'm a lionheart

And in a sea that's painted black
Creatures lurk below the deck
But you're a king and I'm a lionheart
A lionheart, a lionheart, a lionheart, a lionheart
A lionheart, a lionheart, a lionheart, a lionheart

King and Lionheart Meanings & Lyrics Discussion
HighPriestess discusses the meanings of King and Lionheart lyrics: I agree with many of you about it being about a relationship but I as a mother that had mental health issues and my son unfortunately was apart of watching me grow and watched me get away from my abusers, I would never have worked so hard to do all of this if it was for his crown lighting my way even though it was slowly. All of my work was for him to be better than me. As he gets older and it’s time to grow up and head out on his new life without me there next to him I am always there when he needs me to hold his hand and the lessons I taught him will help him get through almost anything. He needs to stick to his dreams and hard work and show the world he is here to stay and wont run and not to let anyone ruin what he has worked for to make his dreams come true. I can write more but hard to do through tears.
