[Verse 1]

The immaculate misconception

Of my grand gilded cage

Poses a few peculiar questions

That fill me with resilient rage

Like who am I to grieve

And who are you to leave?

And what am I to do

With my kingdom that's at siege?

[Chorus]

Heavy is the head now

That wears these gems around

And all I know about fair is

Once a year it blows through town

Oh, the grace and the shame that came with the name

That I got handed down

Keep me walking around 'til the trumpets sound

Halo holding up my tilted crown

My tilted crown

[Verse 2]

Gather 'round as it starts again

There's a war inside and it's closing in

It's a battle I can't afford

To forfeit

So who should I believe

And have I been deceived?

And what am I to do

With my kingdom that's at siege?

[Chorus]

Heavy is the head now

That wears these gems around

And all I know about fair is

Once a year it blows through town

Oh, the grace and the shame that came with the name

That I got handed down

Keep me walking around 'til the trumpets sound

Halo holding up my tilted crown

My tilted crown

[Bridge]

Get my armor, get my friends

My ex lovers that came to ends

Ghosts of my countrymen

Can y'all come to my defense?

[Chorus]

Heavy is the head now

That wears these gems around

And all I know about fair is

Once a year it blows through town

Oh, the grace and the shame that came with the name

That I got handed down

Keep me walking around 'til the trumpets sound

Halo holding up my tilted crown

My tilted crown
