Awakening: Envy

Did you really earn it?

Liquid silver in my lungs
The seal is breaking

I was a shadow in a silent frame
A crack in heaven without a name
Watching light through borrowed eyes
Counting crowns that weren't mine

They sealed me under golden praise
Buried beneath your brighter days
Every smile felt like theft
Every throne a debt unpaid

Glass begins to split in two
Truth drips down in Mercury hue
You call it fate I call it flaw
The universe miscalculated us all

Mirror, mirror watch it fall
Nothing is yours at all
Golden empire, paper crown
I pull the ceiling down

Nothing is yours
Nothing is yours
It's just a loan you're living on

Nothing is yours
Nothing is yours
I'm the crack inside your throne

Colors fade when I arrive
Roses pale to stay alive
Your reflection starts to shake
Is that brilliance or mistake?

I don't need to steal your shine
I just whisper: It's not divine
Suddenly your hands feel small
Suddenly you doubt it all

You don't deserve what you have

Look at you
Pretending it was always yours

Mirror, mirror let it break
Perfection is a fragile fake
Nothing is yours
Nothing is pure
Nothing survives my gaze

Nothing is yours
Nothing is safe
I level every throne you raise

And somewhere
Another seal just cracked
