Serene King
[Pre-Chorus]
Everywhere I go
People wanna know
Who I am
So I tell them
I am the serene king
In a half-asleep dream
Waltz across a battlefield

[Chorus]
Oh, my name is Serene
Oh, my name is Serene
Oh, my name is Serene
Oh, my name is Serene

[Verse 1]
Recognize a sweet deal
Listen to the paint peel
But I know it's good to go
When I get out around town
People in surround sound
On the streets scenes
Wave at me

[Chorus]
Oh, my name is Serene
Oh, my name is Serene
Oh, my name is Serene
Oh, my name is Serene
[Bridge]
But it sings me to sleep
When I'm almost ankle deep
And the captions are wrong
Once again, even though

[Verse 2]
Crystalline revolution
It's my own surreal solution
Everything is serene
An artificial flower
Needs an isolated shower
'Cause it's shinier when I'm clean

[Pre-Chorus]
Everywhere I go
People wanna know
Who I am
So I tell them
I am the serene king
In a half-asleep dream
Waltz across a battlefield

[Chorus]
Oh, my name is Serene
Oh, my name is Serene
Oh, my name is Serene
Oh, my name is Serene
