The Crown Is Ash

가사

[Intro] [Male] The throne is cold beneath my hand Ash drifts across a broken land [Female] You built your crown from borrowed fear Now hear the judgment drawing near [Verse 1] [Male] I counted every door they barred I learned the map of every scar No saint came down to take my side So I became the storm outside [Female] You call it fate, you call it right But every oath can face the light The names you buried still remain They rise like bells above the rain [Pre-Chorus] [Male] Then let the heavens close their gates [Female] Let every witness name your weight [Both] The hour turns, the pillars shake One final choice is yours to make [Chorus] [Male] I am the hand upon the crown The last voice when the walls come down [Female] I am the flame that will not bend The open door, the bitter end [Both] Stand in the fire, answer true The world will keep what outlives you [Verse 2] [Male] I wore the night like iron skin I called the silence, called it win But underneath the iron chain A child still counted every name [Female] I saw the throne begin to crack A road of ruin at your back You can command a thousand souls Still lose the thing that makes you whole [Pre-Chorus 2] [Male] Then let the heavens close their gates [Female] Let every witness name your weight [Both] The hour turns, the pillars shake No mask survives the choice we make [Bridge] [Male] If I must fall, I’ll face the flame No borrowed halo, no false name [Female] If you can hear them through the roar You are not what you were before [Both] Raise every voice from below Let the buried rivers flow Break the lock and split the stone No one stands above alone [Final Chorus] [Male] I was the hand upon the crown [Female] Now watch the old throne crumble down [Both] We are the fire, we are the end The wound, the witness, and the mend Let every broken bell ring true The age of fear is overthrown by you [Finale] [Male] No king above us [Female] No chain below [Both] One sky before us One world to know [Both] When all the towers lose their light We rise together through the night Not as a ruler, not as a ghost But as the ones who paid the cost [Outro] [Both] The crown is ash The gates are wide The final dawn Is on our side
