I'm a ghost in these sheets
Bending over backward it seems
But I always end up on two feet
Or I pick myself up off the floor
I go along with your play
"You have never felt quite this way"
And I'm disappointed to say
That once you were all that I lived for
You always tear me up and then think I'll be hurt by your goodbye
I'm tired of that shit
I can't believe it took so long
But this time you'll see that I'm gone
Cause I'm taking back the crown
Taking back the crown
I'm taking back my right
It's not yours anymore
I'm taking back the crown
Taking back the crown
I'm standing up tonight
It's you I don't adore
After all of our wrongs
I can finally say I stand strong
All of the abuse for so long
Finally healed when you walked out your door
But now I can say
That I never needed you babe
All the times I hid and felt ashamed
Only made me stronger than before
You always tear me up and then think I'll be hurt by your goodbye
I'm tired of that shit
I can't believe it took so long
But this time you'll see that I'm gone
Cause I'm taking back the crown
Taking back the crown
I'm taking back my right
It's not yours anymore
I'm taking back the crown
Taking back the crown
I'm standing up tonight
It's you I don't adore
