Lyrics
Never needed any reason
To find deliverance
Like a cancer running through my veins, oh
That's never gonna give in

See 'em march like lambs to the slaughter
Toy soldiers lined up on the altar
I was never meant to drink that water
And they'll remember me when I'm underground

Heavy is the crown
Never falter, never let 'em bleed you out
I'll be still standing when they try to bring my castle down
I'll never bow down, heavy is the crown

Heavy is the crown, heavy is the crown, oh
Heavy is the crown

With the weight of the world crashing
Pushing you closer to the edge
You find a way to get a little bit stronger
To fight off the demons, yeah

See 'em march like lambs to the slaughter
Toy soldiers lined up on the altar
I'll rise, hell or high water
And you'll remember me when I'm underground

Heavy is the crown
Never falter, never let 'em bleed you out
I'll be still standing when they try to bring my castle down
I'll never bow down, heavy is the crown

(Everything will fade away)
Everything will fade away
Yeah, nothing in this world is meant to stay
Heavy is the crown, heavy is the crown, oh
Heavy is the crown, heavy is the crown, oh
Heavy is the crown, heavy is the crown, oh
Heavy is the crown

Heavy is the crown
Never falter, never let 'em bleed you out
I'll be still standing when they try to bring my castle down
I'll never bow down, heavy is the crown

Heavy is the crown, heavy is the crown, oh (heavy is the crown)
Heavy is the crown, heavy is the crown, oh
Heavy is the crown, heavy is the crown, oh (heavy is the crown)
Heavy is the crown, heavy is the crown, oh
Heavy is the crown, heavy is the crown, oh
Heavy is the crown, heavy is the crown
