Shattered Crown

Crawling streets
Shadows high
Burning past where the angels die
Steel and dirt
The city speaks
Dreams crushed under heavy peaks
I rise
I fall
No time to stall
Walls close in
I break them all

Shattered crown
The throne is burning!
Hearts of fire
Forever turning!
Rise again
From the ground
We'll take back the shattered crown!

Grime on my hands
Scars on my chest
Fighting fate
Won't let it rest
Echoes loud
The war drums pound
Building towers to tear them down
Breathless runs
The race begun
Under the stars
I am the Sun

Chains are broken
Voices rise
Through the ashes
See the skies

Shattered crown
The throne is burning!
Hearts of fire
Forever turning!
Rise again
From the ground
We'll take back the shattered crown!

Strings cry out
The cello weeps
Underneath where silence creeps
Electric rage
Acoustic calm
A storm that sings both hurt and balm
