"hollow crown" lyrics

"hollow crown"

Well she wore you like silk
Bandaged all around
The scars of your love
Came your hollow crown

And she held you through the night
And kissed you through the cold
Blinded by your light
Just waiting to grow old

She said, love, I'd give you everything
I'd give you everything that you need
Oh, love, well I'd do anything
And I'd do anything to be seen

So when you packed all of your bags
And left without a word
Well the voices in her head
Were begging to be heard

So she wept all through the night
And slept all through the day
'Cause her lonely, lonely heart
Was caught in every trap you laid

And she said, love, I'd give you everything
I'd give you everything that you need
Oh, love, well I'd do anything
And I'd do anything to be seen

So why did we break down
And why did we break down
Was it just 'cause we weren't ready

So why did we break down
And why did we break down
Was I too vulnerable or too unsteady

So why did we break down
And why did we break down
Was it just 'cause we weren't ready

And why did we break down
And why did we break down
Was I too vulnerable or too unsteady

Well love, I gave you everything
I gave you everything that you need
Oh, love, well I'd do anything
And I'd do anything to be seen

Oh, love, well I'd do anything
Anything to be free
To be free, to be free
