Burn Down the Crown

Lyrics

Black suits on the stairs Counting every breath we take Tie a flag around their lies Serve it up like poison cake Steel boots on my neck They smile while they twist the knife But I got rust and rage And a match with their name on it (yeah) Burn down the crown Tear the palace to the ground Every brick, every throne Watch it fall, watch it fall Burn down the crown Hear the iron idols drown In the roar, in the roar Of the crowd Paper chains on our wrists Signed in blood we never gave They build walls of polished stone Out of every unpaid grave I see cracks in their glass I hear thunder in my chest When the torches hit the sky We will put their lies to rest (hey!) Burn down the crown Tear the palace to the ground Every brick, every throne Watch it fall, watch it fall Burn down the crown Hear the iron idols drown In the roar, in the roar Of the crowd Raise your fist Raise your voice They had power We have choice From the gutters To the gate Turn their orders Into quake (woah) Burn down the crown Tear the palace to the ground Every brick, every throne Watch it fall, watch it fall Burn down the crown Hear the iron idols drown In the roar, in the roar Of the crowd
