Crown of Thorns - Anthony Sims

You ever hear the story of Mr. Faded Glory? Say he who rides a pony must someday fall I've been talkin' to my alter, says "Life is what you make it And if you make it death well rest your soul away, away, away" It's a broken kind of feeling, she'd have to tie me to the ceiling A bad moon's comin', better say your prayers I wanna tell her that I love her, but does it really matter? I just can't stand to see you dragging down again, again, again So I'm singing, oh this is my kinda love It's the kind that moves on It's some kind that leaves me alone, you know Oh this is my kinda love It's the kind that moves on It's the kind that leaves me alone I used to treat you like a lady, now you're my substitute teacher This bottle's not a pretty, not a pretty sight I owe the man some money, so I'm turnin over honey Yes, Mr. Faded Glory is once again doin' time, yeah This is my kinda love It's the kind that moves on It's the kind that leaves me alone Now this is my kinda love It's the kind that moves on It's the kind that, it's the kind that Leaves me alone Like a crown of thorns It's all who you know So don't burn your bridges, woman 'Cause someday, yeah So I'm singing This is my kinda love It's the kind that moves on It's the kind that leaves you alone, yeah This is my kinda love It's the kind that moves on It's the kind that, kind that leaves me alone Like a crown of thorns It's all who you know Come on, come on, come on Don't burn your bridges, woman

Let me take you on the hillside Clouds streaming overhead I can't take these lies Hanging over my head Better off leavin' them behind Running away instead Thorns of life seem to be Penetrating my soul Something is fading in me Something's taking it's toll Hard to stay a step ahead When you're losing control Takes everything I can do Just to make it through these times I gotta get back to you Have to make it this time Dying inside trying to feel you Burning on my skin Under the moonlight I'll reveal you Again and again Thorns of life seem to be Penetrating my soul Something is fading in me Something's taking it's toll Hard to stay a step ahead When you're losing control Let me, let me, let me feel you Let me feel you Oh! Oh! One more day One more day Give me one more day Dying inside 'til I feel you Burning on my skin Under the moonlight I'll reveal you Again and again Dying inside 'til I feel you Burning on my skin Under the moonlight I'll reveal you Again and again and again Let me take you on the hillside Clouds streaming overhead

I wish that you and I lived in the Sims We could build a house and plant some flowers and have kids But we're both at some trashy Halloween party downtown And I'll probably never see you again I wish that we lived on a VHS I'd erase the things I said and that I'll probably say again Hit rewind on all the times I got lost in my head But I guess I'll never see you again I'll probably never see you again Oh, goddamn I wish we would've met on another night, baby Maybe, then I wouldn't let you leave me Yeah, oh, goddamn I wish we would've met on another night, baby In another life, baby In another... I wouldn't have let you I wouldn't have let you I wouldn't have let you I wouldn't have let- I wish that we met walkin' round the MoMa Yeah I'd say nice to meet you, instead of saying nice to know you I try to impress you with some bullshit 'bout Monet At least I wouldn't be too drunk to stay And I wouldn't have let you slip away Oh, goddamn I wish we would have met on another night, baby Maybe, then I wouldn't have let you leave me Yeah, oh, goddamn I wish we would have met on another night, baby In another life baby In another... I wouldn't have let you I wouldn't have let you I wouldn't have let you I wouldn't have let- I wouldn't have let you I wouldn't have let you I wouldn't have let you I wouldn't have let- I wouldn't have let you I wouldn't have let you I wouldn't have let you I wouldn't have let you leave me

I don't know anyone here I hardly know myself and it feels fuckin' weird Wonder when the pressure will all disappear This should be exciting (this should be exci-) I went to lunch and I cried I was so embarrassed, I covered my eyes I'm all about emotions but not if they're mine What is it I'm hiding? (What is it I'm hid-) Who are they? Who am I Whatever We are they? They are I? Whatever I never have control Fuck I'm getting old Put me in a simulation Where time doesn't exist My family is rich Bet I look better pixelated I'd be happy I know But if not there's a cheat code A game where I don't have to win I think I'd rather be a sim (Suh-suh) (Oh, shiny day) Right click and I change my face 'Cause I kinda think my nose is too big for my waist Nothing in this world that I can't rearrange I really want a mansion, I'll buy an expansion pack My girlfriend is being dramatic I'll throw her in the pool and I'll take out the ladder Do it all the time 'cause it don't really matter And if I do regret it, click undo and get her back Who are they? Who am I? Whatever Least I won't be alive Forever I never have control Fuck I'm getting old Put me in a simulation Where time doesn't exist My family is rich Bet I look better pixelated I'd be happy I know But if not there's a cheat code A game where I don't have to win I think I'd rather be a sim Rather be a sim Rather be a sim Rather be a sim Rather be a sim A game where I don't have to win I think I'd rather be a sim
