about

Track 4 on Sovereign's debut EP "Crowning Defeat".

lyrics

Cold creeping deep in my skin
This crown is one of thorns, thorns from within

Who are you?
Identify yourself
You wear your face the same as mine
I’m just sick of this fiction
Its so deceiving
We share a face, but there’s more to me than you know

This world’s no picture perfect, bleak seas and shattered skies
Cold piercing eyes behind me
All thrones are made of thorns now, thorns from within

Who are you?
Identify yourself
You wear your face the same as mine
I’m just sick

Majesty, how firm will your hand hold?
What will you cling to with all your prophets dead?

Words spoken like a true king
Brick by brick you lay them down
Your throne is built on consulate lies

Cold creeping deep in my skin
This crown is one of thorns, thorns from within

Who are you?
Identify yourself
You wear your face the same as mine
I’m just sick of this fiction
Its so deceiving
We share a face, but there’s more to me than you know

Majesty, how firm will your hand hold?
What will you cling to with all your prophets dead?
