about

"The Crown" is our love letter (hence the choice to release on Valentine's Day) to the marginalized who have taken their power back. Often unsung heroes in society, and at times they even unknowingly inspire others to love themselves for who they are. The message is that we can, as humans, as a collective, create a place where everyone can safely be unapologetically who they are and allow any input to the contrary devolve into meaninglessness symbolized by the way the outro of the "The Crown" also devolves.

ABOUT THE LYRICS
The song lyrics are written mostly from the perspective of an inner strength struggling to convince their person they can be who they are. The angel in the battle for self acceptance. The chorus is where we see that person coming into realization against the negativity "you're the one with the problem, not me. Your definition of dignity is bullshit. The Crown doesn't fit you and now I'm taking it back"

lyrics

baby doll ball gown
gonna win the crown
all in a row one by one they drown
you're the one
in your eyes light dignity on fire
you're the one
in your mind a crown upon a child
in the sunlight like
red royal cry
but i see their insides
a mindless wild
you're the one
in your eyes light dignity on fire
you're the one
in your mind a crown upon a child
oh ah pull them down
oh ah let them drown
oh ah win the crown
you're the one
in your eyes light dignity on fire
you're the one
in your mind a crown upon a child
light dignity on fire

Victorian Death Photos Houston, Texas

Houston, Texas based Victorian Death Photos consists of two anonymous artists, one man, one woman, both shrouded in mystery. Their sound is a haunted, synthy, dark dimension but also surprisingly melodic at times. Deeply weaved with intent, the lyrics are worth a read as each track is thematic and meant to spark conversations about psychological and social issues. ... more
