Throne of Skulls

**Intro:** *(Whispered over slow, haunting guitar)* "Bow your head... kneel... but don't look away..." **Verse 1:** A crown of rust on hollow bones, The echoes scream where flesh has flown. No velvet seat, no jeweled crest— Just grinning teeth where kings find rest. **Chorus:** *(Powerful, anthemic)* **THRONE OF SKULLS!** They whisper names you used to know, **THRONE OF SKULLS!** The only truth the dead can show— No mercy here, no sacred vow, Just blood-stained gold... *sit down.* **Verse 2:** The fools who fought to claim this chair Now stare through sockets, blank and bare. Their hollow laughs still haunt the hall, A chorus when the next ones fall. **Chorus:** **THRONE OF SKULLS!** They whisper names you used to know, **THRONE OF SKULLS!** The only truth the dead can show— No mercy here, no sacred vow, Just blood-stained gold... *sit down.* **Bridge:** *(Tempo drops, eerie spoken-word)* "Every king inherits the same curse— The weight of every skull that came first..." **Verse 3:** You dream in fire, you rule in chains, The ghosts won’t let you sleep again. That golden hush? It’s not applause— Just rattling jaws... just rattling jaws... **Chorus:** *(More desperate, unhinged)* **THRONE OF SKULLS!** They scream the names you stole below, **THRONE OF SKULLS!** The only end that empires know— No laurel wreath, no holy vow, Just grinning teeth... *sit down.* **Outro:** *(Music fades to silence, then a single dry chuckle—cut to black.)*
