Anthony Jay Sanders - Crown lyrics

[Verse 1] We haven't talked in months; it's time I speak I've led a little lifetime in twenty weeks It had a very small midlife crisis too On that dark, dark day, I thought of you I'm stable now, from bike to trike And I date a short girl that I really like She's olive-skinned and smiles so much And buckles under thumb like living plush And I cry in the bathroom a lot And this is barely even a song It's just some silence that I break It's just some silence that I break [Chorus] I wanna hold your crown so heavy in the sky And sing, "You're my favorite guy tonight" I'll hit you with my endless supply of sighs But I hold her to my breast Say, "You're the girl that I love best” It's true She may be my girl, but she's not you [Verse 2] It's not s**ual, it's something else It's a willingness to turn into my lapdog self And a willingness to cancel plans And pledge to you on two right hands It's my dirty feet, so brash and bare When I walk your block, and you don't know I'm there And the trees bow down to every house So thick with futures unannounced It's a rendezvous between divorcees So sick of every three word phrase They sit and stare over empty plates Then one of them swallows and says, "You look great" Then smiles crack open and knowing looks Unravel like in romance books And I just can't keep my stupid face From cracking open like your mom's vase And it hurts, and it's hard to explain And I'm sorry that I brought it up It's just hard not to sing It's just hard not to sing [Chorus] I wanna hold your crown so heavy in the sky And sing, "You're my favorite guy tonight" I'll hit you with my endless supply of sighs But I hold her to my breast Say, "You're the girl that I love best” It's true She may be my girl, but she's not you She may be my girl, but she's not you And I cry in the bathroom a lot And this is barely even a song This is barely even a song
