Heavy is the Crown

[Verse 1]

It's pourin' in, you're laid on the floor again

One knock at the door and then

We both know how the story ends

You can't win if your white flag's out when the war begins

Aimin' so high but swingin' so low

Tryin' to catch fire but feelin' so cold

Hold it inside and hope it won't show

I'm sayin' it's not, but inside, I know

[Pre-Chorus]

Today's gonna be the day you notice

'Cause I'm tired of explaining what the joke is

[Chorus]

This is what you asked for, heavy is the crown

Fire in the sunrise, ashes rainin' down

Try to hold it in, but it keeps bleeding out

This is what you asked for, heavy is the

Heavy is the crown

[Verse 2]

Turn to run, now look what it's become

Outnumbered, ten to one

Back then should've bit your tongue

'Cause there's no turnin' back this path once it's begun

You're already on that list

Say you don't want what you can't resist

Wavin' that sword when the pen won't miss

Watch it all falling apart like this

[Chorus]

This is what you asked for, heavy is the crown

Fire in the sunrise, ashes rainin' down

Try to hold it in, but it keeps bleeding out

This is what you asked for, heavy is the

Heavy is the crown

[Bridge]

Today's gonna be the day you notice

'Cause I'm tired of explaining what the joke is

[Breakdown]

This is what you asked for

[Chorus]

This is what you asked for, heavy is the crown

Fire in the sunrise, ashes rainin' down

Try to hold it in but it keeps bleeding out

This is what you asked for, heavy is the

Heavy is the crown

[Outro]

Heavy is the crown

Heavy is the, heavy is the crown
