Lyrics Broken Crown -

Broken Crown

Cottonmouth in another town
I drank the river dry
Travellin' with a broken crown
A demon passin' by
I watched the blackbirds takin' flight
Ashes in the wind
I disappeared into the night
And felt my spirit bend
I’d scream right up to Heaven if I thought it’d do me good
I’d wash my hands of sin if I really thought I could
I’d speak my mind right now if I had half a mind to give
I’d lay right down and die if I had ever really lived
I went and killed a man today
I watched him disappear
A broken hand sent him away
He was standin' in the mirror
I was born a wicked man
Broken from the start
Am I made of rusty tin?
Did the Lord forget my heart?
I’d scream right up to Heaven if I thought it’d do me good
I’d wash my hands of sin if I really thought I could
I’d speak my mind right now if I had half a mind to give
I’d lay right down and die if I had ever really lived
Oh!
Straight and narrow’s twisted
But the fact it still remains
That line I walk is crooked
But I walk it just the same
I’d try to part your waters
If I didn’t think I’d drown
I’d finally take a stand
If I wasn’t layin' down
I’d scream right up to Heaven if I thought it’d do me good
I’d wash my hands of sin if I really thought I could
I’d speak my mind right now if I had half a mind to give
I’d lay right down and die if I had ever really lived
