Lay my head in the water
Made my bed in your harbor
Watching everything I once knew
Roll down the river with my love for you
I've been coming to grips with the dirt
And the ** you left me in to make my bed
It's like I'm rising up from the dead oh
Should have known
Should have known
You go and cut me like a knife
That's how it goes
That's how it goes
When you hold someone too high
Yeah the throne that you put in them all
Is gonna crush you for too long
'cause the water runs sicker than blood
When it's wrong from the crowd
Even heroes let you down
Yeah I've tried making peace
While you're throwing stones at me
Just a prisoner of the pain I've wrought
Kind of love that comes at a cost oh
Should have known
Should have known
You go and cut me like a knife
That's how it goes how it goes
Oh when you hold someone to hide
Yeah the throne that you put in them on
Is gonna cross you for too long
Cause the water runs thicker than blood
When it's strong from a crown
Even heroes let you down
Even heroes let you down
Faithful hearts break around
And you don't make a sound
There'll be knees on the ground
When the hero lets you down
Should have known
Should have known
You go and cut me like a knife
That's how it
Goes how it goes oh when your heart don't want to hide
Yeah the throne that you're putting them on
Is gonna crush you for too long
Yeah the water runs thicker than blood
When it's drawn from the crown
Yeah the water runs thicker than blood
When it's drawn from the crowd
Even heroes let you down
Even heroes let you down
Oh
