Crownless Lyrics by Nightwish

Wishmaster

2000

[Verse 1]
Crownless again shall be the queen
Trophy on her grave still remains unseen
A boat on the river confessing the sins
The Riddler revealing the deep hidden things

[Verse 2]
Crownless again shall be the king
A gull covered in oil with a broken wing
A hitcher on a road alone and lost
Iron sharpens iron, a truth that once was

[Chorus]
Mine is the Earth and the sword in the stone
Mine is the throne for the idol
One fleeting moment and it is all gone
Crownless again, will I fall?

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]
Roaming on razor-sharp castles
Ruling all but myself, now my night is laid to sleep

[Verse 3]
One fragrant rose worth ten times what I am
A crippled begging a coin braver than I ever was
Reflection from me, devil dressed in white
Chasten the being become what I once was

[Chorus]
Mine is the Earth and the sword in the stone
Mine is the throne for the idol
One fleeting moment and it is all gone
Crownless again, will I fall?
Mine is the Earth and the sword in the stone
Mine is the throne for the idol
One fleeting moment and it is all gone
Crownless again, will I fall?
