lyrics

I learned to shine in the shadow of the spotlights.
I used to play between the wall and taken throne.
I couldn’t touch the crown, I had a sword and fights
waiting for me.

All cameras passed
very close to me,
but they didn’t stop.
There was never (never) enough time.
And I realized that
everything would stay the same.
So the only way out was to
try change myself.

Can I get the power I drew from it?
Forget the time that has gone to nowhere?
I used to sleep with answers and then
get up with questions, get up and reset.

I had a lot to tell, I had to go away.
The palace was smaller from the long distance.
I felt like getting bigger at every turn,
leaving my post.

But I wanted to live
to build and have my place.
Get rid of the armor.
For what? For what? ‘Cause it didn’t work.
It was heavier than
all the flashbacks.
When I go back I see I’m the
castle with wheels.

I don't know if I chose right or wrong,
at least I did my way.
I made my decision of being myself.
The price of being part of something was
to nod, accept the facts.
The battles expired long time ago.
There are no crowns.
