Crown of Rust

V5

I tore my prayers across the sky But Heaven never answered back Your silence was the blade that blessed me Your mercy just another trap I bled belief into the floor Begging ghosts for something more Every “why” became a scar Every breath, a funeral star You never showed me mercy You never gave me love I built a temple out of sorrow Then burned it from above And if your eyes still watch me die Then let them see what you’ve denied Your halo rusts inside my chest Each heartbeat—an unanswered test I drowned in psalms I’ll never sing God of nothing, crownless king There’s blood beneath the altar stone And I can’t tell what’s mine alone If faith’s a wound, then I’m its vein Draining out your holy pain No mercy, no light, no love divine Just ashes where you drew the line I begged for death, you sent me time And time is cruel enough So take this soul you’ve crucified And whisper back your grand design I’ll wait beneath your vacant throne To learn what mercy feels like alone
