Crown

I faced the winds that caused the storm That washed my sinking ship ashore The tides rising above my head keep coming back for more When the waves collapse I will stay strong They won't ever tear me down Grey waters mirror fragments in the colors of my self Searching for something Leading to nothing Drag my body in the dirt Drowning in this holy water My sins pulling me back in Float like a feather In stormy weather And I'm falling in reverse Silouettes of burning bridges Tell me I could never win Destroyer A tie in my tongue There's something in the water Keeping peace for far too long I'm on the border I'm worn to the bone Take everything you want But you can't take my crown The silent beating of my heart Sounds like a voice that's speaking tongues The only reason I could see light down the barrel of a gun Gun gun spilling colors everywhere and painting my concerns Tainted glass blurring the sun I know that I was worth (I was worth) Slowly fading (I was worth) Self-embracing (I was worth) Not becoming an empty afterthought Destroyer A tie in my tongue There's something in the water Keeping peace for far too long I'm on the border I'm worn to the bone Take everything you want But you can't take my crown Take my crown My bones are bound to break My soul is yours to take I cannot feel safe I'm buried deep beneath The shadows of my broken soul Beg and bleed I'm on my knees As if the life I knew was never meant to be (Destroyer) (A tie in my tongue) (There's something in the water) Keeping peace for far too long Destroyer A tie in my tongue There's something in the water Keeping peace for far too long I'm on the border I'm worn to the bone Take everything you want But you can't take my crown Take my crown
