lyrics

So low my head
So heavy this crown
I cannot be your prince now
I am rescinding my right to the throne

So call off the band
Stop the parade
I do not care what's at stake

Just let me be free
You know I never asked to be king

Tell me now what have I unleashed?
There are no reins on the beast
A hungry and wild thing

Embrace famine, forfeit the feast
Walk until I can hardly speak

I've got to lead my own life
Doesn't matter how high the price

(Never gonna come down from here
Never gonna look back in fear
Never gonna change my mind
Look at all of my time)

Nervous tick talk fast
Where is my last laugh?
Broken words escape my breath
As I erase my every step

What have I done?
Killed my kingdom
Left it to burn
Never to return

I had to live like I was lost
It never really mattered what it cost
