[Verse 1]
The river calm down people here
The faith and hope I dream
Build this as an outpost
Just to hear the eagle scream
I watched it rise and touched my sky
That mask the very sun
I listen to the doubters
And claimed it can't be done
I've got nothing more to give to you
My body tired and sore
I've got nothing more to give to you
My body tired and sore
My face is broken and bloody
Punching bedroom doors
Before we'd told you we have better days
Wrapped up against the cold
But hunger roared deep inside
Hatred blocked our road
[Chorus]
I spend all my golden years
Trying to wear this thorny crown
Seems I'm rearranging debtors now
On a ship that's going down
On a ship that's going down
[Verse 2]
I don't know who I tried it for
It surely wasn't you
The crying when your heart's was week
You told me every lie was true
There's paper in a pocket
Of the golden fire walls
I want one last chance of anything
Far away from Eren's shore
[Chorus]
I spend all my golden years
Trying to wear this thorny crown
Seems I'm rearranging debtors now
On a ship that's going down
On a ship that going down
Don't let go
Don't let go
Hold on and carry us on
Don't let go
Don't let go
Hold on and carry us on
[Verse 3]
The ancient kings of towns and york
Across Ireland in a day but our roads stretched
Out for ever when we chose to run away
For no more than a minute
As the ropes slipped off the key
I tasted my tomorrow
And the stillness of the sea
[Chorus]
I spend all my golden years
And wear this thorny crown
Seems I'm rearranging debtors now
On a ship that's going down
On a ships that going down
Don't let go
Don't let go
Hold on and carry us on
Don't let go
Don't let go
Just hold on and carry us on
Now don't let go
Don't let go
Hold on and carry us on
