Crown The Empire Under The Skin Lyrics

[Verse 1]
What do you mean? Our guarded hearts are broken
What do you need? A better way to waste your time?
So out of sync, we smile like nothing's broken
We're acting out the feelings that we left behind

[Chorus]
I've seen it all before
But I've never had to crawl to fight a war
So I don't wanna wake up with you now
No, I don't wanna wake up with you now

[Verse 2]
What do you see? A safer place to harbour?
What do you need? A host that you can hide behind?
A web of lies, we spin until we're broken
But every time I see you feels like the first time

[Chorus]
I've seen it all before
But I've never had to crawl to fight a war
So I don't wanna wake up with you now
No, I don't wanna wake up with you now

[Bridge]
I keep running away from myself
I keep telling myself that I'll change
I keep running away from myself
I keep telling myself that I'll change
I keep running away from myself
I keep telling myself that I'll change
I keep running away from myself
I keep telling myself that I'll change, I'll change

[Outro]
I've seen it all before
What do you mean? Our guarded hearts are broken
I've seen it all before
What do you mean? Our guarded hearts are broken
