Crown of Glass

[Verse 1]
They built a throne high above the crowd
Wrapped me in gold, told me to be proud
I smile for the lights, I dance on the wire
But nobody sees my feet in the fire
I’m perfectly still, a statue of grace
Hiding the fear that’s written on my face

[Pre-Chorus]

And the weight of the world is a beautiful lie
I’m holding it up, but I’m terrified...

[Chorus]

'Cause I’m wearing a crown of glass
So heavy, it hurts to breathe
One wrong step and it shatters fast
And cuts through the heart of me
Oh, it shines in the light
But I’m bleeding tonight
Underneath this crown of glass.

[Verse 2]

The kingdom is cheering, they don't know the cost
To win all this glory, look at what I have lost
I'm trapped in a prism, a glittering cage
A lonely performer alone on the stage

[Pre-Chorus]

And the fractures are growing, the edges are sharp
It’s tearing apart the strings of my heart...
