[Intro]

[Verse 1]
I walked alone where silence grew,
Among the stones we once called true.
This place was sacred, now it bleeds,
Its walls betrayed by selfish deeds.

[Pre-Chorus]
The air still weeps of all we lost,
A dream betrayed, a sacred cost.
The candles fade, the statues crack,
But I am here… I’m coming back.

[Chorus]
Ashes fall where hope once burned,
A shrine defiled, a fate unlearned.
The light we built now choked in flame,
But from the ruins, I rise again.
Your lies may hide behind this grace,
But truth still haunts this hallowed place.
I’ll sing the names, I’ll break the chain—
From ashes, I’ll reclaim the flame.

[Verse 2]
I see the bloodstains on the floor,
Of those who prayed, who fight no more.
The echoes call, the spirits cry,
They beg for vengeance, not goodbye.

[Pre-Chorus]
A thousand voices call my name,
A vow to rise, to end their shame.
No altar left can cleanse this sin,
But I’ll be damned—I won’t give in.

[Bridge]
Where once we knelt, now shadows tread,
The sanctuary’s light is dead.
But deep within these ruins dark,
There still remains a single spark.

[Final Chorus]
Ashes fall where hope once burned,
A shrine defiled, a fate unlearned.
But I still stand, my soul unchained,
From cursed stone I rise, reclaimed.
This voice, this wrath, this sacred flame—
Will burn the ones who stole our name.

[Outro]
I walk alone… but not afraid.
The flame survives what they betrayed.
