Crown
© A. Zoli & M. Hart 2014 (ASCAP)
My friend
I used to call you my friend
Over backwards I would bend
Just to make you happy
I gave
Each time you asked me I gave
Took all I had, each penny saved
And built your empire in the shadows
But when it all falls down
You'll be there looking 'round
And where am I to be found?
You take
Each opportunity you take
Never mind all of those past mistakes
They'll be someone else's mess
And I watch
Here from the sidelines still I watch
Biding time and ticking clocks,
Suited up and ready for the rescue
But when it all fell down
You stood there looking 'round
And where was I to be found?
My friend
You don't deserve the title my friend
Your crown's been broken once again
It lies in pieces all around my feet
You became
A stranger to me, you became
It's like I barely know your name
But I think it's better that way
When it all falls down
You'll still be looking 'round
When it all falls down
You'll still be looking 'round
Where will I?
Where will I be found?

Take What You Can Carry
