Crooked Crown
Your crooked crown
Is falling down
For all to see
It's lost it's shine
You've got nowhere to hide
Shiny coat
Perfect pose
Appease the crowd
Strike a smile
Stay a while
Convince yourself
That you're royalty
Like a fantasy
You're the standard they all strive to meet
But, illusions fade
And people change
When no one's there to see
All the cracks in the glass
The facades you keep
All the holes in the role you made us believe
Did you think that I'd fall for your mystery?
Perfect people live a fallacy
Your crooked crown
Is falling down
For all to see
Yeah
It's lost it's shine
You've got nowhere to hide
You better leave
Before all the king's horses and all the king's men
Are sent to remove the fallen crown from your head
Your crooked crown
Is falling down
For what you did to me
For what you did to me
Center stage
You make your way
Through the scene
Full bouquet
Accepting waves
Like a slot machine
You're not who you seem, who I thought you'd be
All the attention made you believe that
All it takes
Is to embrace
The pageantry
All the cracks in the glass
The facades you keep
All the holes in the role you made us believe
Did you think that I'd fall for your mystery?
Perfect people live a fallacy
Your crooked crown
Is falling down
For all to see
Yeah
It's lost it's shine
You've got nowhere to hide
You better leave
Before all the king's horses and all the king's men
Are sent to remove the fallen crown from your head
Your crooked crown
Is falling down
For what you did to me
For what you did to me
I just keep on hoping that on one of these days
Your crooked crown will fall and reveal in it's place
Your tousled hair
Your fearful stare
The way you wear the jewels to cover what you know is there
And maybe then you will be humbled from your throne
Learn to leave what's well enough alone
Take of the dress
Leave it to rest
You should concern yourself instead with making them forget
Your crooked crown
That's falling down
Yeah
Your crooked crown
Is falling down
Yeah
It's lost it's shine
You've got nowhere to hide
Before all the king's horses and all the king's men
Are sent to remove the fallen crown from your head
Your crooked crown
Is falling down
Your crooked crown
Is falling down
For what you did to me
Yeah
For what you did to me
Yeah
For what you did to me
Oh
Oh
Is falling down
For all to see
It's lost it's shine
You've got nowhere to hide
Shiny coat
Perfect pose
Appease the crowd
Strike a smile
Stay a while
Convince yourself
That you're royalty
Like a fantasy
You're the standard they all strive to meet
But, illusions fade
And people change

Yeah
For what you did to me
Oh
