The Crown
Leah Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

All I feel
Consuming me
All I breathe
My destiny
In my sleep
Awaking dream
Cloud above
Arresting peace

Every moment
Fighting through
Reminding myself
Of the truth
Shattered pieces
Into
This weight upon my
Shoulders...

Won't you come through

Take this burden down
My eyes are searching for the crown
Break these shackles now
Take me through this drought
Through this desert of doubt

Winds are trying to blow me down
The sun is burning in my mind
No direction, no compass now
No home to go to, on my own
I'm on my own, won't you come

Won't you find me?
Won't you find me?
Won't you come through...

Take this burden down
My eyes are searching for the crown
Break these shackles now




Take me through this drought
Through this desert of doubt

Overall Meaning

In "The Crown," Leah sings about a feeling of being overwhelmed and suffocated by her emotions and fears, struggling to find her way through difficult times. She sings about wanting someone to help ease the weight on her shoulders, someone to guide her through the desert of doubt she finds herself in. She asks for help finding the crown, a symbol of power and leadership, that will give her direction and purpose.


Throughout the song, Leah uses powerful metaphors to describe her state of mind. She compares her emotions to a cloud that both covers and arrests her peace. She talks about shattered pieces, weight on her shoulders and a desert of doubt, all representing emotional struggles she's facing. The metaphor of a crown also stands out, symbolizing her desire for control and direction.


The chorus of the song repeats the line "Won't you come through," emphasizing the need for someone to come and help her overcome these struggles. She asks this person to take her burden down, break her shackles, lead her through her doubts and guide her towards her desired crown.
