Ashes of a Hero

Lyrics

Verse 1:
I tumbled to earth, my breath ripped away,
This body of flesh feels like a prison I betrayed.
My mind’s in the undertow, drowning, screaming below,
They promised me power, but it’s sorrow that I sow.

Pre-Chorus:
I fell to my knees, a stranger stared back,
Eyes wild with fury, a heart painted black.
The pieces of who I was scattered in flames,
And all I could whisper was my forgotten name.

Chorus:
A demon was born where a hero once stood,
Shattered by lies, lost to the flood.
A voice in the darkness, pulling me down,
While flames kissed the sky and ashes rained down.
They tore me apart, left my soul to decay,
But even in ruin, I’ll find my own way.

Verse 2:
The air burned my lungs as I clawed through the pain,
Memories of light now swallowed by rain.
They tore at my soul, they broke me in two,
But beneath all the hatred, something still grew.

Pre-Chorus:
I stared at my shadow, the weight of my sins,
A war in my chest that I’ll never win.
But deep in the ashes, I saw something bright,
A flicker of hope fighting the night.

Chorus:
A demon was born where a hero once stood,
Shattered by lies, lost to the flood.
A voice in the darkness, pulling me down,
While flames kissed the sky and ashes rained down.
They tore me apart, left my soul to decay,
But even in ruin, I’ll find my own way.

Bridge (Emotional Breakdown):
I screamed to the heavens, but no one replied,
Just echoes of laughter, the sound of goodbyes.
But deep in the silence, I felt something stir,
A fire igniting where shadows once burned.
I am the chaos, I am the pain,
The pieces they broke will build me again.

Interlude (Soft Reflection):
The flames whispered secrets, the ashes sang songs,
Of love that was lost and of rights turned to wrongs.
But through all the darkness, one truth remained:
The scars on my heart will never be in vain.

Chorus (Explosive):
A demon was born where a hero once stood,
But I’ll take back the power they said I never could.
A voice in the darkness left me empty and blind,
But I’ll tear through the shadows and rewrite my mind.
They tore me apart, left my soul to decay,
But even in ruin, I’ll find my own way.

Outro:
I tumbled to earth, now I finally see,
The demon they cursed was the strength inside me.
From ashes I’ll rise, from embers I’ll fight,
No longer their shadow—I am my own light.
