[Verse]
I built a tower
Brick by brick
But every stone
Man
It cuts too quick
My pride's a rope
Tight around my neck
Love's a mirror
I can't reflect
My heart's a battlefield
Landmines all around
I step too soft
Still hear the sound
I'm drowning in silence
Screaming for air
I wear a heavy crown
But nobody cares
[Chorus]
Oh
This heavy crown
It weighs me down
Can't smile no more
Can't hide the frown
I carry the load
But it’s breaking me now
This heavy crown
This heavy crown
[Verse 2]
I gave my all
Left my soul in the fight
But shadows grow long when you stand in the light
Her words like daggers
Sharp and precise
I loved her too much
That was my vice
I climb this hill
It feels like a wall
The higher I go
The harder I fall
My pride says "man up
" but my heart says "break"
How much of this pain can one man take
[Prechorus]
I laugh but it's hollow
A mask I wear
I’m lost in the echoes
I’m trapped in despair
