about

And if it is a despot you would dethrone, see first that his throne erected within you is destroyed. For how can a tyrant rule the free and the proud, but for a tyranny in their own freedom and a shame in their own pride?
-Kahlil Gibran

lyrics

I held it for a season / I held it for a year / They smile in your face but / They whisper when you're near / It wasn't what you needed / The shoe just never fit / You struggled with it gently cuz / A man don't ever quit /

A king can't ever cut you down / A man can't ever steal your crown / Your words won't ever touch my pride / Don't keep searching / Let your truth roll in with the tide /

I stared right in her face but / She wouldn't let me go / I held on like a beggar / As I braved the wind and snow / She kept her candle burning / I kept her hands held tight / It vanished like a phantom / I was blinded by the light /

A queen can't ever cut you down / A queen won't ever break your crown / Your words ever touch my soul / Gave up on my searching / Burned my troubles up in the coals /
