The Snake And The Crown Lyrics - Hunter's Lullaby - Raine Maida

Today I got to thinking the world's in a strange way 

Feels like I'm at a 7/11 when a robbery takes place 

Do I hide behind the counter with my hands covering my face? 

Or, or do I dive for the gunman before he makes his break? 

Does a .45 go off and the bullets ricochet? 

This is not some random nightmare 

See for me, well, this is everyday 

Though I've been waiting for this train to come 'round 

I've been waiting for the deal to go down 

I've been looking for the things not found 

So far, so far away, I'm just doing my best today 

With all the cigarettes and alcohol and a few minutes to pray 

But it don't do what it used to so, we'll have hell to pay 

A penny for your thoughts, a penny for my cliches 

Oh, I tried to get some distance, I tried to escape 

But this nightmare's so persistent in a Shakespeare kind of way 

Be not afraid, oh, fuck that be very afraid 

Though I've been waiting for this train to come 'round 

I've been waiting for the deal to go down 

I've been looking for the things not found, so far, so far away 

Well, I'm just doing my best today 

Who sold you out? 

We did, we did 

And who let you down? 

We did, we did 

Who put on this crown? 

We did, we did 

We did, we did, we did 

Who sold you out? 

We did, we did 

And who let you down? 

We did, we did 

Who put on this crown? 

We did, we did 

We did, we did 

We did, we did 

Who sold you out? 

We did, we did 

And who let you down? 

We did, we did 

Who put on this crown? 

We did, we did 

We did, we did 

We did, we did 

Oh yes, we did, we did 

Oh yes, we did, we did
