You ruled the room with cold control Your every word just crushed my soul Smiles that cut beneath the skin You dressed it up as discipline I walked the line, I bore the weight While you sat back and sealed my fate Built your trap, then watched me fall But I broke through your every wall No mercy throne, no heart beneath Just poisoned air when you would breathe You lit the match, then turned away But I’m the fire you couldn’t slay Throne of ashes, throne of lies Built your kingdom just to die Tried to chain me, made me crawl But I stood tall through it all You lost your crown the day I rose Your throne is cracked from what you chose Oh-oh-oh, throne of ashes, throne of ashes Oh-oh-oh, your kingdom crashes, kingdom crashes You made her watch and take the notes While feeding lines she had to quote She held her tongue, obeyed because You poisoned trust and called it law I signed my name and walked away But still you had some dirt to say You crowned yourself, denied the cost And ruled alone with all you lost They followed me, one by one Your perfect reign came all undone You wear the crown like all is fine Too proud, too blind to see decline Throne of ashes, throne of lies Built your kingdom just to die Tried to chain me, made me crawl But I stood tall through it all You lost your crown the day I rose Your throne is cracked from what you chose Oh-oh-oh, throne of ashes, throne of ashes Oh-oh-oh, your kingdom crashes, kingdom crashes I saw the mask you wore with pride I knew the lies you tried to hide You thought I’d bow beneath your crown But you’re the one who tore it down Throne of ashes, throne of lies Built your kingdom just to die Tried to chain me, made me crawl But I stood tall through it all You lost your crown the day I rose Your throne is cracked from what you chose Oh-oh-oh, throne of ashes, throne of ashes Oh-oh-oh, your kingdom crashes, kingdom crashes Oh-oh-oh, throne of ashes, throne of ashes Oh-oh-oh, your kingdom crashes, kingdom crashes
