You rolled in on a cold wind
I remember that night so well
Saw a widow in the window
You thought she needed your help
Like a wolf in sheep's clothing
Just covered her eyes in wool
You're not a savior, you didn't save her
You just played her like a foolYou ain't the king of this castle
You ain't the rule of this roost
Baby, let me save you the hassle
Your feet'll never fit in them boots
You're just standing in the shadow
There ain't a shadow of doubt
Never gonna win this battle
You're never gonna wear that crown
You're just livin' in a dead man's house
Livin' in a dead man's house
You're just livin' in a dead man's house
Livin' in a dead man's houseYou can lay there, you can stay there
You can keep on trying to pretend
It's a joke though, 'cause we both know
Who's chair you're rocking in
So go on, put a show on
If it helps you sleep at night
But you can't be that man
No matter how hard you try
'Cause You ain't the king of this castle
You ain't the rule of this roost
Baby, let me save you the hassle
Your feet'll never fit in them boots
You're just standing in the shadow
There ain't a shadow of doubt
Never gonna win this battle
You're never gonna wear that crownYou're just livin' in a dead man's house
Livin' in a dead man's house
You're just livin' in a dead man's house
Livin' in a dead man's houseYou're just livin' in a dead man's house
Livin' in a dead man's house
You're just livin', livin' in a dead man's houseYou ain't the king of this castle
You ain't the rule of this roost
Baby, let me save you the hassle
Your feet'll never fit in them boots
You're just standing in the shadow
There ain't a shadow of doubt
Never gonna win this battle
You're never gonna wear that crownYou're just livin' in a dead man's house
Livin' in a dead man's house
You're just livin' in a dead man's house
Livin' in a dead man's house
