1. GOLDEN CROWN

Why do you build me up only to tear me down?
Was I not good enough to wear your golden crown?
High, too high, atop your tower of stone.
High, too high, so now I feel alone.

Why do you hate me? Why can't you let me go?
I'm chasing every dream where you cannot follow.

Why do your lips sing praise while your throat screams neglect?
Am I your goddess or am I degenerate?
Drowning, I'm drowning in your ocean eyes.
Drowning, I'm drowning, trapped beneath your lies.

Hate me. Why can't you let me go?
I'm chasing every dream where you cannot follow.
Why won't you leave me where I can wield sorrow?
I want to face the unknown, to face it on my own.

Drowning, I'm drowning. Drowning, I'm drowning. Drowning, I'm drowning.

Hate me. Why can't you let me go?
I'm chasing every dream where you cannot follow.
Why won't you leave me where I can wield sorrow?
I want to face the unknown, to face it on my own.
