Broken Crown

Cotton mouth in another town
 I drank the river dry
 Travelin' with a broken crown
 A demon passing by
 I watched the blackbirds taking flight
 Ashes in the wind
 They dissapeared into the night
 And I felt my spirit bend
 I'd scream right up to Heaven if I thought it'd do me good
 I'd wash my hands of sin if I really thought I could
 I'd speak my mind right now if I had half the mind give
 I'd lay right down and die if I had ever really lived
 I went and killed a man today
 I watched him dissapear
 A broken hand sent him away
 He was standing in the mirror
 I was born a wicked man
 Broken from the start
 Am I made of rusty tin?
 Did the Lord forget my heart?
 I'd scream right up to Heaven if I thought it'd do me good
 I'd wash my hands of sin if I really thought I could
 I'd speak my mind right now if I had half the mind to give
 I'd lay right down and die if I had ever really lived
 ♪
 The straight and narrow's twisted
 But the fact, it still remains
 That line I walk is crooked
 But I walk it just the same
 I'd try to part your waters
 If I didn't think I'd drown
 I'd finally take a stand
 If I wasn't lying down
 I'd scream right up to Heaven if I thought it'd do me good
 I'd wash my hands of sin if I really thought I could
 I'd speak my mind right now if I had half the mind to give
 I'd lay right down and die if I had ever really lived
