[Verse 1]
You carved your name
Into every painted wall
Signed every sky
Still you feel small
You count your followers
Like they’re worth more than your friends
But the room goes quiet
When the show ends
[Chorus]
Power is hollow without humility
You’re a king in an empty room
All that gold on your shoulders
Can’t carry the truth
Power is hollow without humility
If you’re standing there all alone
What’s a throne
What’s a throne
[Verse 2]
You raise your glass
So someone clicks reply
But your mother’s call
Still goes by
You win every argument
Lose yourself in every win
You’re the loudest voice
In a crowd that’s thinning
[Chorus]
Power is hollow without humility
You’re a king in an empty room
All that gold on your shoulders
Can’t carry the truth
Power is hollow without humility
If you’re standing there all alone
What’s a throne
What’s a throne
[Bridge]
Take off the medals
Lay them on the floor
Say “I was wrong”
Just once
Maybe more (ohhh)
[Chorus]
Power is hollow without humility
You’re a king in an empty room
All that gold on your shoulders
Can’t carry the truth
Power is hollow without humility
If you’re standing there all alone
What’s a throne
What’s a throne
