Tilted Crown

[Verse 1]
The immaculate misconception
Of my grand gilded cage
Poses a few peculiar questions
That fill me with resilient rage
Like who am I to grieve
And who are you to leave?
And what am I to do
With my kingdom that's at siege?

[Chorus]
Heavy is the head now
That wears these gems around
And all I know about fair is
Once a year it blows through town
Oh, the grace and the shame that came with the name
That I got handed down
Keep me walking around 'til the trumpets sound
Halo holding up my tilted crown
My tilted crown

[Verse 2]
Gather 'round as it starts again
There's a war inside and it's closing in
It's a battle I can't afford
To forfeit
So who should I believe
And have I been deceived?
And what am I to do
With my kingdom that's at siege?

[Chorus]
Heavy is the head now
That wears these gems around
And all I know about fair is
Once a year it blows through town
Oh, the grace and the shame that came with the name
That I got handed down
Keep me walking around 'til the trumpets sound
Halo holding up my tilted crown
My tilted crown

[Bridge]
Get my armor, get my friends
My ex lovers that came to ends
Ghosts of my countrymen
Can y'all come to my defense?

[Chorus]
Heavy is the head now
That wears these gems around
And all I know about fair is
Once a year it blows through town
Oh, the grace and the shame that came with the name
That I got handed down
Keep me walking around 'til the trumpets sound
Halo holding up my tilted crown
My tilted crown
