King or cripple,

What have I become?

Beneath these kingly robes,

There lies a fragile man

What made me a king can sometimes cripple

All that you give can sometimes rob my innocence



Why do you let us walk upon a cliff so steep,

When deep below the sea there lies a bed of gold?

And if this should be our battle place,

Don't let me fall

Don't let us fall



Keep me

Won't you keep me?

Keep me

Won't you keep me?



I'd love to hold the hand of one who healed the blind

And saw the leper run into the arms of love

And king or cripple, they were the same to you

You took a broken man and you treat him like a king



Keep me

Won't you keep me?

Keep me

Won't you keep me?



King or,

King or,

King or cripple?

You took a broken man and you treat him like a king
