Heavy Is the Crown |
To your eyes, I might seem half alive |
But to me, fiction swirled and wrote my story |
-Possibly told allegory |
In hindsight, I should have stepped light |
But it’s too late |
Deception had no meaning— the mask was torn |
I charged, for I’m no coward! |
But I suppose I failed |
I tried to take this hour! |
But I suppose I failed |
There’s only so much amends can change before boiling over |
And all that I’d gained meant nothing to me |
For I was left field |
Wanting to rid me of her haunting |
And nothing real could stop me! |
But the faster I’d run |
The tighter the fangs of the crest took hold |
Wide-eyed and turned around |
A stone pound in the chest—denied and downed |
But I still wore my crown |
When all odds are stacked against me and all courage split |
I’ll stand my ground with a prideful prowess |
-Heavy is the crown |
I thought that I was bleeding virtue |
Bakarum, bakarum |
But all I ever did was hurt you |
Bakarum, bakarum |
And as she plays her heart before me? |
-Put to sleep by her song |
I promised never to desert you… |
Bakarum, bakarum! |
Still lying to myself |
Come join my treasured collection of tales |
Beneath the onus upon my height |
Was there a sliver of the man I used to be? |
Wide-eyed and turned around |
A stone pound in the chest—denied and downed |
But I still wore my crown |
When all odds are stacked against me and all courage split |
I’ll stand my ground with a prideful prowess |
Heavy, the sucker’s crown |
