Heavy Lies The Crown - Showdown

Cross, star, serpents coil

Carved in the graves that scar our soil

The living will always know war

Death, rape, greed and hate

You live or die like a cop on the take

Over your shoulder, looming black

It’s hell to pay and you can’t come back

Oh, heavy lies the crown

Built on the back of an army bent on doom

There’s no coming back for you

Oh, heavy lies the crown

Built on the back of an army bent on doom

There’s no coming back for you

Amputation

Remove the heart and we all become victims

Just a culture of slaves and whores

Liberation

Subservient to this congregation

And if the shepherd is a wolf in a robe

Then we’d rather never know

Oh, heavy lies the crown

Built on the back of an army bent on doom

There’s no coming back for you

Oh, heavy lies the crown

Built on the back of an army bent on doom

There’s no coming back for you

Attack

Heavy lies the crown

Cross, star, serpents coil

Carved in the graves that scar our soil

No army formed will then stand down

Heavy lies the crown

Oh, heavy lies the crown

Built on the back of an army bent on doom

There’s no coming back for you

Oh, heavy lies the crown

Built on the back of an army bent on doom

There’s no coming back for you

No coming back

Cross, star, serpents coil

Carved in the graves that scar our soil

No army formed will then stand down

Heavy lies the crown
