lyrics

Heavy lies the crown
That's been placed on your head
You walk with holy intent
But wear a devil's smirk instead
Just give it time
Your reign will quickly cease
Your legacy doesn't stand a chance
When no one's bowing at your feet

So don't sit there and act
Like you've got this under control
The vultures are circling over
Don't worry about your life
They just want your bones
From dust to dirt
You try and make up for all the ground you've lost
Hope pumping your veins full of poison
Was well worth the cost

(So now) You're pumping out your chest
You've got the namesake of an angel
But no one would call you blessed
Go ahead keep living out this perfect little mess
Ya you through caution to the wind
So what the fuck did you expect
(You traitor) We were supposed to see this through
This friendship changed so quickly
Like a prom-queen turning prude
Caught up with the notion you had nothing left to lose
So here's your future or your grave
Now it's time for you to chose

Now it's time for you to chose
It's either me, or it's you
It's either, it's either
It's either me or it's you
It's either, it's either
It's either me, or it's you

So don't sit there and act
Like you've got this under control
The vultures are circling over
Don't worry about your life
They just want your bones
From dust to dirt
You try and make up for all the ground you've lost
Hope pumping your veins full of poison
Was well worth the cost

And now I sit here and pray
To catch sight of the man
Who said he'd never stray
But there's the blood lust again
And there's no hope
No you'll never see the end
When you trade the cross you carried
For a crown of thorns instead
When you trade the cross you carried
For a crown of thorns instead

You have a tongue made of glass
So go choke on your words
You have a spine made of sand
That can't take the weight of the world
I'm not worried about your bite
When your bark's so fucking weak
You turned the away from the pack
And now it's time to show our teeth

We're here to spill your blood on the streets
All hail the ratt king
All hail the ratt king
You're not true royalty
You don't own me
You're not true royalty
You don't own me

So don't sit there and act
Like you've got this under control
The vultures are circling over
Don't worry about your life
They just want your bones
From dust to dirt
You try and make up for all the ground you've lost
Hope pumping your veins full of poison
Was well worth the cost
