Your Crown
[Verse 1]
What do you know about pain?
Says orphan, outcast
Jumping on the next train
Shadow of her passed, well
[Pre-Chorus]
Life itself it must end
Close for the rest of us
Giving all but your right hand
With enough breath to say that
[Chorus]
Nothing good it comes for free
The tables turn eventually
When you're up above and looking down, well
One day you'll lose your
Your crown
[Verse 2]
Getting high on these backstreets
Is all these kids know
Broken down preacher said
Where did God go
[Pre-Chorus]
Life itself it must end
Close for the rest of us
Giving all but your right hand
With enough breath to say that
[Chorus]
Nothing good it comes for free
The tables turn eventually
When you're up above and looking down, well
One day you'll lose your
Your crown
[Bridge: Secretary of State John Foster Dulles]
Its defense, of 57 days and nights, will go down in history as one of the most heroic of all time. The defenders, composed of French and native forces, inflicted staggering losses on the enemy. The French soldiers showed that they have not lost the will or the skill to fight even under the most terrible conditions. And it showed that Vietnam can produce soldiers who have the qualities needed to defend their country
[Verse 3]
Dead tired working two jobs
Still can't provide
Walking in the front door
Can't look his kids in the eye
[Pre-Chorus]
Life itself it must end
Close for the rest of us
Giving all but your right hand
With enough breath to say that
[Chorus]
Nothing good it comes for free, yeah
The tables turn eventually
When you're up above and looking down, well
One day you'll lose your
[Chorus]
Yeah nothing good it comes for free
The tables turn eventually
When you're up above and looking down, well
One day you'll lose your
Your crown
[Outro]
Nothing good it comes for free
(Your crown)
The tables turn eventually
(Your crown)
When you're up above and looking down, well
One day you'll lose your
Your crown
