Watch as they pull me down

Watch as they pull me down

Watch as they pull me down

Watch as they pull me down

Watch as they pull me down

I′m writing a book on how to stay conscious when you drown

And if the words float up to the surface, I'll keep them down

This is the first time I know I don′t want the crown

You can take it now

You promised the world and brought me it hanging from a string

Stuck in my mouth, into my throat, told me to sing

That was the first time I knew you can't kill the king

And those who kiss the ring

Tell me how

It's better when the sun goes down

We will never escape this town

I wasn′t scared when he caught me

Look what it taught me

Tell me how

It′s better if I make no sound

I will never escape these doubts

I wasn't dead when they found me

Watch as they pull me down

I′m writing a chapter on what to do after they dig you up

On what to do after you grew to hate what you used to love

That was the first time I knew they were out for blood

And they would have your guts

Tell me how

It's better when the sun goes down

I wasn′t scared when he caught me

Look what it taught me

Tell me how

It's better if I make no sound

I will never escape these doubts

I wasn′t dead when they found me

Watch as they pull me down

Watch as they pull me down

Watch as they pull me down

Pulling me down

Dead when they found me

Watch as they pull me down

Watch as they pull me down

Watch as they pull me down

Pulling me down

Dead when they found me

Watch as they pull me down

Watch as they pull me down

I'm writing a book on how to stay conscious when you drown

And if the words float up to the surface, I'll keep them down

This is the first time I knew I don′t want the crown

You can take it now (you can take it now)
