Static Crown

Static Crown [Verse 1] Ceiling stain and a busted fan Spinning like a cheap god with a one-note plan Coffee breath and a socket spark Dog at the window goin’ blind in the dark Left my head in the sink last night Woke up mean in a grocery light Everybody wants a little control Like a fistful of sand in a bullet hole [Pre-Chorus] Slow leak Bad wire Everybody’s little house fire [Chorus] Let it itch Let it bleed Don’t build a throne from what you need Let it crack Let it drown You can’t wear chaos like a static crown Bite your tongue Kiss the floor Everything you clutch just wants you more Let it spin Don’t make a sound You can’t wear chaos like a static crown [Verse 2] TV snow in the back of my teeth Cheap joy hanging like a rotten wreath Mailbox full of knives and jokes Laugh too hard and the whole thing chokes Guru on a napkin, grease and smoke Says the wheel turns whether not you’re broke Scratch that itch till your fingers split Whole world’s sellin’ a leash and calling it fit [Pre-Chorus] Thin skin Dead choir Everybody’s got a pet messiah [Chorus] Let it itch Let it bleed Don’t build a throne from what you need Let it crack Let it drown You can’t wear chaos like a static crown Bite your tongue Kiss the floor Everything you clutch just wants you more Let it spin Don’t make a sound You can’t wear chaos like a static crown [Bridge] Monkey mind in a paper mask Laughing at the things I ask Want a cure, want a sign Want clean hands in a butchered time But the drain hum says real low Watch it come, then watch it go No gold star, no sacred trick Just dirty lungs and a candle wick [Final Chorus] Let it itch Let it bleed Don’t build a throne from what you need Let it crack Let it drown You can’t wear chaos like a static crown Scratch it raw Dig it down Nothing holy in the feedback now Let it spin Let it burn out You can’t wear chaos like a static crown [Outro] Ceiling stain Socket spark Little ghost In the dark
