Lyrics
There are few can who deny, at what I do I am the best
For my talents are renowned far and wide
When it comes to surprises in the moonlit night
I excel without ever even trying
With the slightest little effort of my ghostlike charms
I have see grown men give out a shriek
With a wave of my hand and a well-placed moan
I have swept the very bravest off their feet
Yet year after year, it's the same routine
And I grow so weary of the sound of screams
And I, Jack, the Pumpkin King
Have grown so tired of the same old thing
Oh, somewhere deep inside of these bones
An emptiness began to grow
There's something out there, far from my home
A longing that I've never known
I'm a master of fright and a demon of light
And I'll scare you right out of your pants
To a guy in Kentucky, I'm Mister Unlucky
And I'm known throughout England and France
And since I am dead, I can take off my head
To recite Shakespearean quotations
No animal nor man can scream like I can
With the fury of my recitations
But who here would ever understand
That the Pumpkin King with the skeleton grin
Would tire of his crown, if they only understood
He'd give it all up if he only could
Oh, there's an empty place in my bones
That calls out for something unknown
The fame and praise come year after year
Does nothing for these empty tears

[@daret9056]

Jack's lament really epitomizes the idea that you can have everything (fame, fortune) and still feel empty.

[@Shadywolf09]

Also, it's a way for people who are depressed to feel a connection with a character. Jack putting on a show and being who everyone knows him to be and taking off that mask when he's alone, which is a depressed, tired Jack. As a person who suffers from severe depression, I put on a mask in public, but when alone I'm just miserable.

I love how he has one line about his empty tears before gently hugginh himself. I can only imagine him feeling so empty, a few tears rolling down his face as he lifts his legs onto his chair and curls into a ball. Not to mention he has to put on a smile for his townsfolk, and can't even THINK about letting them down, because it's not an option. It's not something he could even imagine, because it never crosses his mind he would or could let them down. He just does his effortlessly makes them happy. No wonder he feels so lonely. The big scary skeleton gentleman cries.

@@BobPantsSpongeSquare97 My theory is that in his life he had a big imagination that got him killed because they didn't understand his ideas.

[@torasvlogs6942]

The older you get the more relateable this becomes. This is an I want song but it's not for an I want to live somewhere else song like part of your world, or I want a drastic change in my life. This is about artist burnout. Even people who are experts in their art, and made it their passion can get bored from what they do becoming so routine that they just want something refreshing in their life. A new routine, a new piece of art to work on, etc. As a cosplayer I can feel the same way, it's costumes, the community shit-talking, trying to look out for creepers, and trying to one-up each other. And you can feel extremely burnt out from it from time to time. Even outside of cosplay artists just feel burnt out but their audience just wants more of the same no matter how they feel.
