Crowned a Coward
You think you've got it all
But i've got one thing that you'll never have
A family that loves me
In spite of all my flaws
Oh, Brother
Where art thou?
Devoured by fruits of seeds you've sown?
Where did all your friends go?
A cowardly king will turn his back on his men
So turn your back on them
A cowardly king will turn his back on his men
A king lives for his people, not for himself
You'll never know, the cost of all you sold
How can you claim to be a man of principle?
Think clearly, see clearly
I've got the world behind my back
(How can you claim?)
Think clearly, see clearly
I've got the world behind my back
(To be a man...)
Sit back on your throne of lies
Has this victory ever felt so hollow?
Who'll be the heir to your crown?
I will burn this all, your empire of coal
Why cant you see yourself for what you are?
Your reflection is broken, shattered from the start
Why cant you see yourself for what you are?
Your reflection is broken, shattered from the start
Where does your allegiance lie?
When you're done burning bridges
We will watch you drown!
(You'll never know, the cost of all you've sold)
You can hope for clouds, come drizzle or hurricane
You can't stop us burning now
Why cant you see yourself for what you are?
Your reflection is broken, shattered from the start
Why cant you see yourself for what you are?
Your reflection is broken, shattered from the start
Think clearly, see clearly
I've got the world behind my back
Think clearly, see clearly
I've got the world behind my back
But i've got one thing that you'll never have
A family that loves me
In spite of all my flaws
Oh, Brother
Where art thou?
Devoured by fruits of seeds you've sown?
Where did all your friends go?
A cowardly king will turn his back on his men
So turn your back on them
A cowardly king will turn his back on his men
A king lives for his people, not for himself
You'll never know, the cost of all you sold
How can you claim to be a man of principle?
Think clearly, see clearly
I've got the world behind my back
(How can you claim?)
Think clearly, see clearly
I've got the world behind my back
(To be a man...)
Sit back on your throne of lies
Has this victory ever felt so hollow?
Who'll be the heir to your crown?
I will burn this all, your empire of coal
Why cant you see yourself for what you are?
Your reflection is broken, shattered from the start
Why cant you see yourself for what you are?
Your reflection is broken, shattered from the start
Where does your allegiance lie?
When you're done burning bridges
We will watch you drown!
(You'll never know, the cost of all you've sold)
You can hope for clouds, come drizzle or hurricane
You can't stop us burning now
Why cant you see yourself for what you are?
Your reflection is broken, shattered from the start
Why cant you see yourself for what you are?
Your reflection is broken, shattered from the start
Think clearly, see clearly
I've got the world behind my back
Think clearly, see clearly
I've got the world behind my back
