Forked Crown
by Cody Tweedt
Lyrics
Verse 1
I wear the night like steel
Soft voice, hard stare
You think I’m easy prey
Then you learn I’m there
Hands come flying in
Like fools with empty pride
I bite down on the pain
And keep the blade inside
Pre-Chorus
You laugh, then you flinch
Too late to hide your shame
I’ve had enough of your games
I know your stupid name
Chorus
Forked crown, I rise
Forked crown, I bleed
You cross that line
You’ll remember me
Forked crown, I stand
Forked crown, you see
I’m not your doll
I’m the storm you feed
Verse 2
Every bruise tells truth
Every mark won’t stay
I bend, then I break
Then I cut my way
You came for a joke
You left with fear in your mouth
I don’t beg, I don’t fold
I burn the room down
Pre-Chorus
You laugh, then you flinch
Too late to hide your shame
I’ve had enough of your games
I know your stupid name
Chorus
Forked crown, I rise
Forked crown, I bleed
You cross that line
You’ll remember me
Forked crown, I stand
Forked crown, you see
I’m not your doll
I’m the storm you feed
Bridge
Half-time
Listen close
I am the wound and the blade
I take the hit
Then I come back changed
Higher
Meaner
Harder to tame
Final Chorus
Forked crown, I rise
Forked crown, I bleed
You cross that line
You’ll remember me
Forked crown, I stand
Forked crown, you see
I’m not your doll
I’m the storm you feed
