Crown

My heart is bursting My head is a hole now The lines are twisting And I want more How'd I get so narcissistic? Everything feels artificial All my skin's turned inside out Fishing hook all in my mouth Wishing well stalling my doubts Apparitions haunting my house Wendigo's don't know when to go And no heaven knows if I'll sink Inside the reaches of Kingdom Come Blind preacher told me that Jesus loves My teachers made me grind teeth to dust I think, that I think too much If I think too much, then I can't sleep If I sleep too much, then I can't smoke If I smoke too much, then I can't dream And I can't see my father He said don't you see that you're my boy Afloat at sea on a search for buoys In drowning pools sounds are mute Sirens sing surrounding you No time for Kings, no fountained youth Those minor keys I found in you Grew out of tune, too out of view Unatoned, don't sound attuned I'm so out of it, they so counterfeit I can't even count the fits Leeches adorn my outer rim Made a ring of thorns, no crown would fit I don't wear it out, It'll wear it out It's whereabouts clandestine, guess it's paramount Heavy is the head that bears the crown My heart is bursting My head is a hole now The lines are twisting And I want more My heart is bursting My head is a hole now The lines are twisting And I want more How'd I get so narcissistic? Everything feels artificial All my skins reptilian Left in rough dominions I bet my blood's vermilion Dead head above four living limbs I'm villainous, obsidian I'll burn a bridge then build again I wish these wishing wells Were filled with those who wished me well I mix my woes with whiskey well Well whiskey whisks me whimsically I disagree with the parrot crowd Spinning, carbons on carousels Skinny, living like caracals Heavy is the head that bears the crown My heart is bursting My head is a hole now The lines are twisting And I want more
