Crown Of Ghosts

I see the shadow standing in my skin
The shape of every wound I’ve carried in
A crown of ghosts upon my head
Whispers every name I bled

Every step is haunted still
Every silence bends my will

Crown of ghosts, they circle me 
In the night where the light won’t be
Crown of ghosts, they bury deep 
But I will tear the mask and finally breathe

The mirror breaks — the eyes look back
The ghost I was is on attack

But I won’t bend, I never will

In the night where the light won’t be
Crown of ghosts, they bury deep 
But I will tear the mask and finally breathe
Crown of ghosts, they weigh me down 
But I won’t wear their cursed crown

You haunt the places I have been
But I won’t let you in again
Your throne is fire, your grip decays
Your reign is dust that fades away
Your reign is dust that fades away!

Crown of ghosts, they circle me 
In the night where the light won’t be
Crown of ghosts, they bury deep 
But I will tear the mask and finally breathe

I won’t wear your crown
I won’t wear your crown
I won’t wear your crown
