Take It Away

You tried to wear a crown that you didn't deserve
Dramatic irony that no one heard
Written in the tragedy we couldn't ignore
A comedy of errors where the ending is your own reward

Are you the fool who could be king
Or just a know it all who doesn't know a thing
Small time pretender takes the throne
Now it's time for the truth to be known

You can take it all you want
But you'll never rate about a cliche
And you can try, try, try
But you're never going to take it away

You tricked yourself about the blood on your hands
Now your gun's loaded and we know where you stand
You picked our pockets then you left us for broke
Now you're just somebody that I used to know
