Raine Maida - The Snake and the Crown Lyrics



Raine Maida - The Snake and the Crown Lyrics




Today I got to thinking the world's in a strange way
Feels like I'm in a 7-11 when a robbery takes place
Do I hide behind the counter
With my hands covering my face
Or do I dive for the gunman before he makes his break
Does a 45 go off do the bullets ricochet
This is not some random nightmare
See for me, well this is my everyday

I've been waiting for this train to come round
I've been waiting for the deal to go down
I've been looking for the things not found
They're so far, so far away
I'm just doing my best today

Cigarettes and alcohol and a few minutes to pray
But it don't do what it used to so we'll have hell to pay
A penny for your thoughts
A penny for my cliches

I try to get some distance
I try to escape
But this nightmares so persistant in a Shakespeare kinda way
Be not afraid
Well f*ck that be very afraid

I've been waiting for this train to come round
I've been waiting for the deal to go down
I've been looking for the things not found
They're so far, so far away
I'm just doing my best today

And I said who sold you out
Oh we did we did
And who let you down
Oh yeah we did we did
And who put on this crown
Oh yes we did
We did we did
We did we did

Oh who sold you out
We did we did
Who let you down
We did we did
And who put on this crown
We did we did we did we did we did we did

And who sold you out
We did we did
And who let you down
We did we did
And who put on this crown
We did we did we did we did we did we did

Oh yes we did
Oh you and me did
Oh yes we did
We did
