Raine Maida - The Snake and the CrownLyrics

Today I got to thinking the world's in a strange way Feels like I'm at a 7/11 when a robbery takes place Do I hide behind the counter with my hands covering my face? Or, or do I dive for the gunman before he makes his break? Does a .45 go off and the bullets ricochet? This is not some random nightmare See for me, well, this is everyday Though 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 So far, so far away, I'm just doing my best today With all the 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 Oh, I tried to get some distance, I tried to escape But this nightmare's so persistent in a Shakespeare kind of way Be not afraid, oh, fuck that be very afraid Though 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, so far, so far away Well, I'm just doing my best today Who sold you out? We did, we did And who let you down? We did, we did Who put on this crown? We did, we did We did, we did, we did Who sold you out? We did, we did And who let you down? We did, we did Who put on this crown? We did, we did We did, we did We did, we did Who sold you out? We did, we did And who let you down? We did, we did Who put on this crown? We did, we did We did, we did We did, we did Oh yes, we did, we did Oh yes, we did, we did
