Good Charlotte
TAKE THIS CROWN
[Verse 1: DE'WAYNE]
Woke up to the sirens, still might be a good day, uh
Got some shit that I'm hiding, but I kill myself real slowly
So pour another one for me, let me see how fast I fall
I got some friends who might never leave
I ain't seen them since I've been gone, but I'm holding on
[Chorus: Joel Madden]
Take this crown away from me
(Take this crown away from me)
I hold myself with no esteem
(I hold myself with no esteem)
There's no joy in victory
(There's no joy, there's no joy)
All my heart feels is defeat
[Verse 2: DE'WAYNE]
See me right back where I startеd
They kept me so in thе dark there
I try to relate with these people
They can't see my face in this place, I don't need you
I pray for the things that I wanted
I got 'em each nail in my coffin
Then, realize we're all brokenhearted
This game, it was over the day that we started
[Chorus: Joel Madden]
Take this crown away from me
(Take this crown away from me)
I hold myself with no esteem
(I hold myself with no esteem)
There's no joy in victory
(There's no joy, there's no joy)
All my heart feels is defeat
All my heart feels is defeat
[Post-Chorus: Joel Madden]
No kingdom, no reason
I can't feel it, I can't see them
Take this crown away from me
(Take this crown away from me)
[Bridge: DE'WAYNE]
Looking for something that I can hold to
You can't tell on the outside
Something crazy, I never told you
I dig a grave full of my lies
Can you understand my truth?
Then, you might know why
Night terrors, they creep in my room
But still, I hold mine
(All my heart feels is defeat)
[Chorus: Joel Madden]
Take this crown away from me
(Take this crown, take this crown)
I hold myself with no esteem
(I hold myself with no esteem)
There's no joy in victory
(There's no joy, there's no joy)
All my heart feels is defeat
All my heart feels is defeat
[Post-Chorus: Joel Madden]
No kingdom, no reason
I can't feel it, I can't see them
So, take this crown away from me
(Take this crown away from me)
[Outro: Joel Madden]
No kingdom, no reasons
No love here, no seasons
So, take this crown away from me
(Take this crown away from me)
