Crooked Crown

[Verse 1]
If I could find a cure for your disease
I'd keep it to myself and oversleep
And I would brush it slowly through your hair
Don't despair

[Verse 2]
And I could sell your manuscript away
Or sell it to the lowest bid today
Or toss it down the stairs into your yard, to discard
And you are not a mystery
More a tragic comedy

[Chorus]
The next day you rise
The next day you rise
And that day you rise (Oh-oh, oh-oh)
And that day you rise

[Bridge]
Hold me down, I'm your clown
You refuse to wear your crooked crown

[Verse 3]
But when she cries at night
Goals are in her sight
But she won't set it out or get it done
It just keeps her broken down
She's trapped inside, the tensions from her life
She can't get around, get around
I don't see you breaking down
Not right, I'm right (Goals are in)
Goals are in her sight
But she won't set it out or get it done
It just keeps her broken down
She's trapped inside tensions from her life
She can't get around, get around
I don't see you breaking down
Not right, I'm right

[Chorus]
The next day you rise
The next day you rise
And that day you rise (Oh-oh, oh-oh)
And that day you rise
