Heavy Is the Crown

[Verse 1: Mike Shinoda]
It`s pourin` in, you`re laid on the floor again
One knock at the door and then
We both know how the story ends
You can`t win if your white flag`s out when the war begins
Aimin` so high but swingin` so low
Tryin` to catch fire but feelin` so cold
Hold it inside and hope it won`t show
I`m sayin` it`s not, but inside, I know

[Pre-Chorus: Mike Shinoda & Emily Armstrong]
Today`s gonna be the day you notice
`Cause I`m tired of explainin` what the joke is

[Chorus: Emily Armstrong]
This is what you asked for, heavy is the crown
Fire in the sunrise, ashes rainin` down
Try to hold it in, but it keeps bleedin` out
This is what you asked for, heavy is the
Heavy is the crown

[Verse 2: Mike Shinoda]
Turn to run, now look what it`s become
Outnumbered, ten to one
Back thеn should`ve bit your tongue
`Cause thеre`s no turnin` back this path once it`s begun
You`re already on that list
Say you don`t want what you can`t resist
Wavin` that sword when the pen won`t miss
Watch it all fallin` apart like this

[Chorus: Emily Armstrong]
This is what you asked for, heavy is the crown
Fire in the sunrise, ashes rainin` down
Try to hold it in, but it keeps bleedin` out
This is what you asked for, heavy is the
Heavy is the crown

[Bridge: Mike Shinoda]
Today`s gonna be the day you notice
`Cause I`m tired of explainin` what the joke is

[Breakdown: Emily Armstrong]
This is what you asked for

[Chorus: Emily Armstrong]
This is what you asked for, heavy is the crown
Fire in the sunrise, ashes rainin` down
Try to hold it in but it keeps bleedin` out
This is what you asked for, heavy is the
Heavy is the crown

[Outro: Emily Armstrong]
