lyrics

CROWNLESS CHILD

A crownless child can grow wild
He never knew a blissful mother mild
That’s why
He built a castle made of cries
In the court of fateless shapes that leaves him so petrified
Coz’ a crowd of faceless guards never smiles

If time flies, our many lies remain
They taste like poison in every vein, a lullaby
That colors our voice with the weak sound of filthy disdain
There’s no worse than those we tell to ourselves

Slowly they stand for one last ovation
That swells the citizens of an empty nation
Slowly they stand for a sad celebration
A little dedication to an absent friend
Make way for our vanished dreams

If we choose to wall in our mind
We won’t hear the silence
That’s mumbling things
Do not blame those who die
Do not swallow their pride
Let us be ourselves
Let us free ourselves
From the grief that seeks to enslave us

Slowly they stand for one last ovation
That swells the citizens of an empty nation
Slowly they stand for a sad celebration
A little dedication to an absent friend
Make way for our vanished dreams

As lonesome as I am
I’m crawling in a wind tide
As crazy as I am
I’m getting lost beyond the wide

Make way for the crownless children
Celebrate the crownless children
A little dedication to the crownless children
I guess we’re all crownless children
