Thanks Song Title: Dust and Crowns Text: holabert Got a crack in the mirror where I see the news Same old story, different shade of blue Men in suits with their hollow eyes Selling truth wrapped up in lies I hear thunder but there’s no rain Just empty words and a growing pain They build towers on a sinking ground While the truth don’t make a sound Yeah, they keep talking, but I don’t believe Every promise just another sleeve We’re choking on dust from these paper crowns Watching the kings burn the whole thing down They say it’s fine, just hold the line But we’re running out of borrowed time Tell me now, who’s this all for? ‘Cause it ain’t us like before My father said, “Boy, keep your faith” But faith don’t fill an empty plate Working hard just to stand in place While they gamble with the human race Yeah, they keep smiling for the TV lights While we’re drowning in the long, cold nights We’re choking on dust from these paper crowns Watching the kings burn the whole thing down They say it’s fine, just hold the line But we’re running out of borrowed time Tell me now, who’s this all for? ‘Cause it ain’t us like before I hear the whistle of a broken train Rolling heavy through my veins No destination, no control Just a fire burning in my soul You call this freedom? Feels like a cage to me… We’re choking on dust from these paper crowns Yeah, they took the truth and they stripped it down We bleed, we break, we still remain Trying to wash away the stain Tell me now, what’s left in store? ‘Cause it don’t feel like home no more Just dust… and broken crowns… Yeah, nothing feels like home now…
