Broken crown

Touch my mouth and hold my tongue
I´ll never be your chosen one
I´ll be home, safe and tucked away
You can´t tempt me if I don´t see the day
The pull on my flesh was just too strong
It stifled the choice and the air in my lungs
Better not to breathe than to breathe a lie
´Cause when I open my body I breathe a lie
I will not speak of your sin
There was a way out for him
The mirror shows not
Your values are all shot
But oh, my heart was flawed
I knew my weakness
So hold my hand
Consign me not to darkness
So crawl on my belly ´til the sun goes down
I´ll never wear your broken crown
I took the road and I fucked it all away
Now in this twilight how dare you speak of grace
So crawl on my belly ´til the sun goes down
I´ll never wear your broken crown
I took the road and I fucked it all away
Now in this twilight how dare you speak of grace
So crawl on my belly ´til the sun goes down
I´ll never wear your broken crown
I can take the road and I can fuck it all away
But in this twilight our choices seal our fate
I´ll never be your chosen one
I´ll be home, safe and tucked away
You can´t tempt me if I don´t see the day
The pull on my flesh was just too strong
It stifled the choice and the air in my lungs
Better not to breathe than to breathe a lie
´Cause when I open my body I breathe a lie
I will not speak of your sin
There was a way out for him
The mirror shows not
Your values are all shot
But oh, my heart was flawed
I knew my weakness
So hold my hand
Consign me not to darkness
So crawl on my belly ´til the sun goes down
I´ll never wear your broken crown
I took the road and I fucked it all away
Now in this twilight how dare you speak of grace
So crawl on my belly ´til the sun goes down
I´ll never wear your broken crown
I took the road and I fucked it all away
Now in this twilight how dare you speak of grace
So crawl on my belly ´til the sun goes down
I´ll never wear your broken crown
I can take the road and I can fuck it all away
But in this twilight our choices seal our fate
