lyrics

Oh, so heavy the head wearing the crown.
Oh, so heavy the words.
They're drowning you out.
Maybe you'd stand if you could, but you can't.
It all becomes a dance you've done.

But lay down your arms, friend.
You're human, just as I am.

If I were the Villian, you would be tied down to the train tracks by now.
But all I'm killin' is time, waiting for your light to shine down.

So carry your mark, and make sure I see.
You can call it your art that you have more than me.
Maybe you just take what you can, while you can.
It all becomes a dance you've done.

But lay down you arms, friend.
You're human, just as I am.

If I were the Villian, you would be tied down to the train tracks by now.
But all I'm killin' is time, waiting for your light to shine down.

Each time with less of a meaning, but more of a feeling.
I just can't relate.
But you hold out your hands, and make the demands of a hunger that just never satiates.

If I were the Villian, you would be tied down to the train tracks by now.
But all I'm killin' is time, waiting for your light to shine down.
