[Verse 1]
The crown of emptiness
As night descended slowly
Maybe it's an illusion
One fake dream, one grey plastic
Reality of tears and of repentance
I felt my life crossing like
A stream of sadness
[Chorus]
Wearing a martyr's crown
The crown of sadness
The crown of emptiness
Mortified by his rudeness
[Verse 2]
Souls sunk in despair
Futile actions the enemy of life
Like an ego
That's trying to rip your heart out
I felt the fear for what I saw;
Trying to save something
This incredible heap of mistakes
Stigmatized my soul
[Chorus]
Wearing a martyr's crown
The crown of sadness
The crown of emptiness
Mortified by his rudeness
Wearing a martyr's crown
The crown of sadness
The crown of emptiness
Mortified by his rudeness
[Bridge]
I felt the waves of sadness
Breaking my heart
I felt the fear of what I saw
I held my head up high
Wearing a martyr's crown
Wearing a martyr's crown
This crown
[1st Solo: Marios]
[2nd Solo: Olof]
[Pre-Chorus]
I felt the waves of sadness
Breaking my heart
I held my head up high
Wearing a martyr's crown
[Chorus]
Wearing a martyr's crown
The crown of sadness
The crown of emptiness
Mortified by his rudeness
[Outro]
I felt the plainness and all the errors
Of this tragic truth
Wearing a martyr's crown
Crown
