[Verse 1]
Every sermon hits the same
I hear your name in the flame
Put you high, too high, too fast
Now I’m paying for my past
Maybe I promised too much
Held your hand, then lost my touch
One week gone and I still see
That look you left inside of me
[Pre-Chorus]
Tell me where we went
Tell me what it meant
I kept giving you more
Till I broke the door
Now the room feels cold
And the truth gets bold
I was building too high
On a lie I called mine
[Chorus]
Throne of my heart
You sat so high
Throne of my heart
And we said goodbye
I gave you my best
Then I gave you too much
Throne of my heart
Now it hurts to touch (throne of my heart)
[Verse 2]
I still remember your face
Like a bruise, like grace
In the back of my mind
You won’t leave me behind
I was talking in vows
Like I knew how, but how?
Now I’m down on my knees
With the words I used to please
[Pre-Chorus]
Tell me where we went
Tell me what it meant
I kept giving you more
Till I broke the door
Now the room feels cold
And the truth gets bold
I was building too high
On a lie I called mine
[Chorus]
Throne of my heart
You sat so high
Throne of my heart
And we said goodbye
I gave you my best
Then I gave you too much
Throne of my heart
Now it hurts to touch (throne of my heart)
[Bridge]
If I loved you wrong
Then I loved too loud
Made you wear my dreams
Like a heavy crown
And I know, I know
That was never enough
I made you a throne
Out of desperate love
[Final Chorus]
Throne of my heart
You sat so high
Throne of my heart
And we said goodbye
I gave you my best
Then I gave you too much
Throne of my heart
Now it hurts to touch (throne of my heart)
Throne of my heart
I’m learning to let go
Throne of my heart
Even when I don’t know
