Crown of Flames
No gold, no jewels, no soft velvet bed
Just a halo of fire around my cold head
A crown of flames that’s scorching hot red
In shades of blood these hands have now shed
I wander in the valley that shadows have led
Where the weary broken souls have solemnly fled
‘Walk the beaten path’ is what they always said
But I set the path ablaze and let the fire spread
I’m a feral animal that cannot be tamed
And you won’t ever see me bow out in shame
Cuz I’ve been ignited and I can’t be contained
So burn me at the stake if you can’t stand my name
