Introduction:
Bm
I writing a book on how to stay
D
conscious when you drown
And if the words float up to the surface
F#m
I keep them down
This is the first time I know

I don want the crown

You can take it now
You promised the world and brought me

Stuck in my mouth, into my throat

And those who kiss the ring

Watch as they pull me down
