Heavy Lies The Crown Lyrics - Back From The Abyss - Orange Goblin

Oh lord, my world is coming down 

I think my ship has run aground 

It's been a fight since I was born 

I lost my bearings in the storm 

No stars to guide me to the sea 

No shining light to set me free 

I've got to try to carry on 

Don't wanna be the failed son 

Time and tide, live for today 

Who am I to, to make the rules, to break the rules and slay the fools 

How am I, to be the man, who rules the land, with sword in hand 

Fire roars, upon the sores that carry heroes off to war 

Heavy lies the crown I wear, but I did swear this weight to bear

A simple man, I stand alone 

I'm only flesh and blood and bone 

But I will fight for my beliefs 

And I will set my people free 

This land was built by hands of men 

And I'll return to rules again 

And take my place upon the throne 

To build a kingdom of my own 

Time and tide, live for today 

Who am I to, to make the rules, to break the rules and slay the fools 

How am I, to be the man, who rules the land, with sword in hand 

Fire roars, upon the sores that carry heroes off to war 

Heavy lies the crown I wear, but I did swear this weight to bear 

We stand for truth and honour 

And on the morning tide 

We head to war together 

Beneath the Northern sky 

and Odin's ravens lead us on to victory...

Into the field of battle 

I wear the crown with pride 

Til' death, there's no surrender 

But if I fall and die 

I pray the Valkyrie will carry me home... 

To Valhalla. Field of Thunder. 

Halls of Power. Torn Asunder... and heavy lies the crown
