[Verse 1] In a place of youth and new desires A thousand oceans couldn't quench a fire You felt that night You knew just as well as I [Pre-Chorus] As soon as the academy closed It'd be black screens and vintage clothes The stars our canvas, darling We lived a lifetime in every heartbeat [Chorus] When we were the Kings (We were, we were) When we owned the streets (We were, we were) Back in our Little Infinity When we were the Kings [Verse 2] Well scars look better on saints and sages But love looks better on tattered pages Child, pay no mind Graffiti turns to art with time [Pre-Chorus] As soon as the academy closed It'd be watching sheets and velvet thrones The stars are DaVinci, darling Composing Mona Lisa in the light of car beams [Chorus] When we were the Kings (We were, we were) When we owned the streets (We were, we were) Back in our Little Infinity When we were the Kings I'll never forget the way it began: Warning signs and cigarettes The world was our king, the time was the bet Can you feel my heartbeat, you feel my heartbeat I'll never forget what you said: You said hold me in, pull your breath In this moment we are permanent And you can always find me, you will always find me [Chorus] When we were the Kings When we owned the streets And back in our Little Infinity Yeah we're still the Kings (We are, we are) Yeah we still own the streets (We are, we are) And back in our Little Infinity When we were the Kings
