[Verse 1]
What's this war worth fighting for
Can't remember what's the cause
Maybe religion, maybe we were bored
Something started, never stopped
Revenge a dish that's hard to drop
God gave us sons so we can finish this thing off
[Refrain]
Lose your crown, lose your crown
Lose your crown, lose your crown
[Verse 2]
Cassandra wailing at the wall
Whistleblowers for the cause
Informing us all what goes on behind closed doors
Waterboarded by the law
Labelled traitors, snitch and whore
Where's your piece prize
Where's your shelf full of awards
[Refrain]
Lose your crown, lose your crown
Lose your crown, lose your crown
[Bridge]
Leaked out, no one wants to hear this
Freaked out, haven't got the clearance
Clout of the NRA, peace pipe
Come the revolution, we fight
Seldom for solutions
Fight, to get our own way
[Verse 3]
Set your timer on spin
I'm depressed by how we're taken in
Do you think words can right this ship again?
Can't go back, the moment's gone
Lost the will to right the wrong
Falling back on this impotent song
[Refrain]
Lose your crown, lose your crown
Lose your crown, lose your crown
[Outro]
Don't let it get you down
Life and death are just a breath away
Don't let it get you down
Life and death are just a breath away
Don't let it get you down
Life and death are just a breath away
Life and death are just a breath away
Life and death are just a breath away
Breath away
Breath away
