Lyrics

Verse 1**
*He wore the dawn, a crown of flame,
A symphony of light without a name.
The fairest voice in heaven’s choir,
But beauty burned with pride’s desire.
“Why kneel?” he hissed, “When stars obey?
This throne is mine—the skies betray.”*

**Pre-Chorus**
*Oh, velvet lies, a seraph’s cry—
“Let empires rise where gods may die.”
He spun his dreams in gilded thread,
And heaven’s host drank treason’s bread.*

**Chorus**
*Lightbringer, fallen, crowned in embers,
You traded grace for ash-remembered.
A million wings once hailed your call—
Now shadows curse your shattered hall.
The war you waged, the lie you sold:
A paradise surrendered, love turned cold.*

**Verse 2**
*He charmed the stars with honeyed tongue,
“We’ll reign where chains of worship hung.
The Ancient’s law is but a cage—
Why serve a king when *we* are sage?”
A third of heaven roared his name,
Blind to the void behind his claim.*

**Pre-Chorus**
*Oh, velvet lies, a seraph’s cry—
“Let empires rise where gods may die.”
He spun his dreams in gilded thread,
And heaven’s host drank treason’s bread.*

**Chorus**
*Lightbringer, fallen, crowned in embers,
You traded grace for ash-remembered.
A million wings once hailed your call—
Now shadows curse your shattered hall.
The war you waged, the lie you sold:
A paradise surrendered, love turned cold.*

**Bridge**
*The thunder spoke, the sword was cast—
Eden’s gates slammed shut, his flames surpassed.
No more the morn kissed his face,
Just endless night, a realm displaced.
What price the pride of one so fair?
A serpent’s crown, a world’s despair.*

**Outro**
*Now hellfire dances in his eyes,
A mirror cracked of paradise.
The dirge he sings, a twisted hymn:
“I was *light*… before the dim.”*
