Crown Jewel

Shake the bounty from the bags Like a dog with no tail to wag We're all coming up fruitless Relish the spectacles and Burning, burning at both ends Until embers fly away to a yawning abyss They've got you tied to their strings You're fighting in their ring Break your posture No matter the worries you foster Having nothing left to prove That'll be the crown jewel We're all played as the damned fools Should strive to be less cruel Throw this technique away Savor the seconds and We're not counting the days Clear smoke from the haze They've got you tied to their strings You're fighting in their ring Break your posture No matter the worries you foster Sat atop a pedestal The point of view is so critical Was it worth all the acclaim? There's no way to win their game Break your posture, no matter the worries you foster
