Bury the Crown

Lyrics

[Verse 1] You carved your name in the iron door I learned the shape of the lock you wore Your little kingdom of borrowed fear Falls brick by brick when I’m standing here [Pre-Chorus] I kept the key beneath my tongue Now hear the sound of what you’ve done [Chorus] Bury the crown, let the buried ones rise I am the fault line under your lies Break every chain that you called my skin You built these walls—I’m coming in [Verse 2] The dust still hangs where the rafters split I count the nails that you drove in it No more waiting for your decree The door swings wide; now answer me [Pre-Chorus] I kept the key beneath my tongue Now hear the sound of what you’ve done [Chorus] Bury the crown, let the buried ones rise I am the fault line under your lies Break every chain that you called my skin You built these walls—I’m coming in [Breakdown] Down to the stone Down to the bone Nothing you own Can keep me below [Final Chorus] Bury the crown, let the buried ones rise I am the fault line under your lies Break every chain that you called my skin You built these walls—I’m coming in [Outro] The iron door is open now Look at me I’m still here
