The Ground Remembers

[Intro] [Instrumental: tense bass and drums] [Verse 1] You carved your name beneath the stone And fed the roots with borrowed bone A cold hand counts the debts you made While every promise starts to fray [Chorus] No crown survives the weight below No breath can bargain with the stone Stand in the ruin, face what you made The ground remembers every name [Verse 2] You built your walls from other lives Then called the wreckage justified The mortar cracks, the iron bends The buried truth comes up again [Chorus] No crown survives the weight below No breath can bargain with the stone Stand in the ruin, face what you made The ground remembers every name [Instrumental: extended isolated bass riff] [Breakdown] Down to the root Down to the bone Nothing you buried Stays buried alone [Final Chorus] No crown survives the weight below No breath can bargain with the stone Stand in the ruin, face what you made The ground remembers every name [Outro] The ground remembers Every name
