Heavy is the silence Heavy is the sound Every word they hand to me Feels like iron in my lungs Every step they ask of me Adds another ton Expectations sharpened Like a blade against the skin I keep walking forward Though the pressure pulls me in This crown is pulling me down Every second, every mile I carry it through the fire Just to keep them satisfied This crown is pulling me down Every promise, every vow I never asked for the weight But I'm buried in it now All the walls are closing Every door becomes a test They call it elevation But it feels like house arrest Every time I stumble They're waiting for the fall So I hold the line in silence While the structure starts to crawl If I let it slip If I let it fall Would the world collapse Or would nothing change at all? This crown is pulling me down Every second, every mile I carry it through the fire Just to keep them satisfied This crown is pulling me down Every promise, every vow I never asked for the weight But I'm buried in it now Let it fall Let it fall
