[Verse 1] You wear a crown you never earned Paper shields, the truth gets burned Stamped approval, bought and sold Empty stories dressed in gold You smile wide for every screen Filter life to stay pristine Every like a borrowed breath Applause that dances close to death [Pre-Chorus] Behind the velvet curtain, cracks begin to show You built a throne of whispers no one really knows [Chorus – Hook] It’s a glass kingdom, watch it fall Hear the echo through it all Every lie you ever made Turns to dust you can’t persuade Glass kingdom, shining bright Shattered in the light When the truth comes crashing in Tell me—who have you been? [Verse 2] Pointing fingers, shifting blame Fuel the fire, feed the game Louder voices, hollow core Kicking down another door Business trips to disappear Home office to hide the fear Never looking eye to eye Living in a grand disguise [Pre-Chorus] You painted perfect pictures, framed them in deceit But every silent mirror knows what you won’t meet [Chorus – Hook] It’s a glass kingdom, watch it fall Hear the echo through it all Every lie you ever made Turns to dust you can’t persuade Glass kingdom, shining bright Shattered in the light When the truth comes crashing in Tell me—who have you been? [Bridge – Orchestral Rise, Choir enters] (Oh—oh—oh) No more shadows left to hide (Oh—oh—oh) No more masks behind your pride Voices rising, calling out your name All the faces you deceived won’t stay [Verse 3] Now the silence hits so loud No more cheers, no empty crowd All the hands that pulled you high Let you fall and pass you by What remains when all is gone? No more stage to stand upon Was it worth the grand parade? All the truth you never made [Final Chorus – Bigger, Choir + Strings + Full Band] It’s a glass kingdom, watch it fall Hear the echo through it all Every lie you ever made Turns to dust you can’t persuade Glass kingdom, burning down No more borrowed crown When the truth stands face to face There’s no one left to take your place [Outro – Soft, Cello + Piano] Glass kingdom… fading slow Now you finally know…
