Piñata Lyrics by Hungry Lights

Heavy Is The Crown

2016

A wasp buzzed with the beat of a drum that no one could hear
I was in dream when it pattered across my window of trance
The waves heaved out a lumbered breath
The eager sun stung my eyes
The dream appeared as a riddle
For the soul cannot speak in words
Your temptation found the stone
When my perception was in the gray
So I poked onerous at that dial that was lodged so deep inside my pith

I did not ask to have this dream
And with all the bloodshed, I'd one way to repent
And when all the hellions opposing me have kicked the flames
You’ll be back here with me

To the heights, another foul nest—no branches
I denied all I felt inside as they brought me down
I was good ‘til your devilish stone kept prying
To not invite the poison bite as they danced behind my eyes

You threw your stone right into my chest
And truth be told, I had not bled for this
The vespiary inside was breached
And here come the wasps to pique those in their way!

To the heights, another foul nest—no branches
I denied all I felt inside as they brought me down
I was good ‘til your devilish stone kept prying
To not invite the poison bite as they danced behind my eyes

And who am I not to set them free?
When if I don’t, they’ll eat away my insides
I might have kept the nest, but you threw your stone
So it’s not my fault
No, it’s not my fault!

And who am I not to set them free?
When if I don’t, they’ll eat away my insides
And who are you to act so pristine?
Like you don’t have some soot of your own
Well, Mrs. Humble, I’m sorry I don’t shine
I’m a little scratched up from the mistakes of my life
O’ Mrs. Humble, I’m sorry I don’t shine!
I’m a little scuffed up from the mistakes I’ve made
-But at least I lived my life
Bet you’ll come around

O’ I feel like I’m ruined!
Their sting has seen to it
And who’s watching?
Who’s watching?
In mirrors—reflections

The swarm inside’s rewrote my way
And I don't think I can be saved
Too caught within their wicked horde
And we’ll never change
So we sin and are sent down where I found my crown
We sin and we sin and we sin and we sin

Ever careful, you lead me to the edge
-A drop so endless, there’s no room to misstep
And you told me, “I hope you brought your wings”
A push so gentle, I barely seemed to notice the fall
Did I trust you
-Touched by Heaven’s dirty fingers
