If Not the Crown

I'm starting to believe that I've been led astray

That I've been fed a tall tale or two

I can't believe that I was fool enough to take you at your word

When just a wink would do

How many other one-in-a-million lovers could there really be?

Can't find the forest for the trees

I'm having second thoughts, yeah, I'll be honest

I don't think I've got what it takes to move

I'd like to think that I can hold my own, that I can rumble

Go the distance, toe-to-toe and prove

But how many other one-in-a-million fighters have you ever seen?

I'm neither butterfly nor bee

I've been all over town, mixed up, beat down

Searching for jewels, if not the crown

I'm rearranging all the places where I keep my secrets

I thought some were special, I thought I was special too

But it might be time to purge and burn

Time to turn toward the mirror for a different view

How many other one-in-a-million winners could there really be?

In a crowded room it's hard to breathe

I've been all over town, mixed up, beat down

Searching for jewels, if not the crown
