[Verse]
He walks in the room like a wildfire burns
Eyes like whiskey
They twist and they turn
Men slap his back
Women grab his hand
He's a legend they say
Not a regular man
[Chorus]
King of the barstool
Ruler of the night
Everyone’s hero
Under neon light
But there's a shadow in his crown
A crack in his throne
The virus in his blood won't leave him alone
[Verse 2]
Stories spill out like drinks on the floor
He’s danced with danger
Fought a hundred wars
Laughter’s his armor
Charm’s his blade
But the mirror knows the deals he's made
[Prechorus]
He’s got the world in his palm
Or so it seems
But his kingdom crumbles in silent screams
[Chorus]
King of the barstool
Ruler of the night
Everyone’s hero
Under neon light
But there's a shadow in his crown
A crack in his throne
The virus in his blood won't leave him alone
[Bridge]
He raises his glass
They cheer his name
But inside he’s drowning in the same old shame
The bottle’s a friend that betrays with a grin
The war he’s fighting
He can never win
