The Smallest Teeth

लिरिक्स

[Verse 1] Beneath the dust of old Meridian A crown was hammered out of bone The little kings came crawling upward To claim a world they’d never grown You hear their claws behind the pantry You count the names beneath your breath One by one, the walls grow smaller One by one, they bargain with death [Pre-Chorus] No throne can hold them No door can keep them out They move as one They feed on doubt [Chorus] Rat King, Rat King, gather in the dark A hundred hungry hearts beneath one mark Rat King, Rat King, let the old world fall The smallest teeth can bring down the wall [Verse 2] The captain wore a cracked brass button The healer carried half a key The youngest kept the candle burning So every lost one could still see They shared the bread, they shared the danger They learned what fear could never teach A kingdom isn’t built by one hand It’s every hand within its reach [Pre-Chorus] No crown can split them No flame can make them run They move as one And strike as one [Chorus] Rat King, Rat King, gather in the dark A hundred hungry hearts beneath one mark Rat King, Rat King, let the old world fall The smallest teeth can bring down the wall [Bridge] When the last bell cracks When the high gates break When the brave stand back And the proud hearts shake There’s a little path Where the lost ones meet And a kingdom wakes Under every street [Final Chorus] Rat King, Rat King, gather in the dark A hundred hungry hearts beneath one mark Rat King, Rat King, no one stands alone The smallest teeth can take the tyrant’s throne Rat King, Rat King, let the old world fall The smallest teeth can bring down the wall [Outro] One hand, then another One name, then them all The smallest teeth Can bring down the wall
