Golden Crown

from Holding Cell by Anaria

/

lyrics

Why do you build me up
Only to tear me down?
Was I not good enough
To wear your golden crown?

High, too high, atop your tower of stone.
High, too high, so now I feel alone.

Chorus: Why do you hate me?
Why can’t you let me go?
I’m chasing every dream
Where you cannot follow.

Why do your lips sing praise
While your throat screams neglect?
Am I your goddess or
Am I degenerate?

Drowning, I’m drowning in your ocean eyes.
Drowning, I’m drowning, trapped beneath your lies.

Chorus 2: ...hate me.
Why can’t you let me go?
I’m chasing every dream
Where you cannot follow.
Why won’t you leave me
Where I can wield sorrow?
I want to face the unknown,
To face it on my own.

Drowning, I’m drowning.
Drowning, I’m drowning.
Drowning, I’m drowning.

(Chorus 2)
