Lyrics
Paper crowns and borrowed thrones, Smiling while they sharpen stones. Every promise tastes like rust, Every handshake breaks to dust. Shadows gather in the halls, Whisper lies behind the walls. Freedom sold for silver chains, While the innocent take the blame. They say power keeps you safe, But it just teaches you to break. Welcome to the throne of ashes, Built on bones and broken masses. They raise their flags and curse the sky, Then watch the world ignite. Everybody wants the crown, Till the empire burns down. In the end, the truth is cruel... Everybody wants to rule. Turn your back, the knives appear, Allies vanish when you’re near. History is stained in blood, Written by the ones who stood On the bodies of the weak, Clawing for the power they seek. Torchlight dances on the pyres, Fed by hunger, built by liars. They don’t care what freedom costs, So long as they are never lost. Welcome to the throne of ashes, Built on bones and broken masses. They raise their flags and curse the sky, Then watch the world ignite. Everybody wants the crown, Till the empire burns down. In the end, the truth is cruel... Everybody wants to rule. Watch the towers crumble, Watch the tyrants fall. But someone always rises, To build another wall. Bow your head or draw your blade, It’s all the same in this charade. King or slave, we bleed the same... Only the grave remembers your name. Welcome to the throne of ashes, Where the world in silence clashes. Crowns will rust and stars will fade, But still the game is played. Everybody wants the crown, Till the whole world drowns. In the end, the truth is cruel... Everybody wants to rule. And the ashes rule the world.
