[Orchestral Intro – Whispered] In the hollow breath of a dying world… the last crown trembles. The sky splits. The old gods awaken. [Verse I] Carved in the marrow of a kingdom collapsing, I rise from the ashes of a throne left to rot. Storms coil above me like serpents of judgment, their tongues of lightning tasting the sins of man. I march through a corridor of broken monarchs, shadows screaming in chains beneath my feet. The choir of the forsaken sings in fractured tongues, calling my blood to reclaim the night. [Pre-Chorus I] Bury the sun in the cradle of despair, let the earth drown in its own remembrance. I feel the pulse of the void behind my ribs— cold, relentless, divine. [Chorus] [GUTTURAL SCREAM] RAISE — THE — WITHERED — CROWN! Let the heavens choke on the breath of creation. I am the faultline splitting the firmament, the requiem carved into immortal stone. No god will claim me. No fate will chain me. I ascend through ruin. [Verse II] Oceans writhe at the echo of my footsteps, a symphony of drowned empires clawing upward. Their hands reach through centuries of silt, begging for absolution I will never give. Columns of bone rise like monuments of spite, etched with the names of kings who feared death’s kiss. I drag their memories like millstones of judgment, fueling the tempest breaking in my throat. [Bridge I — Long Gutturals & Chant] [GUTTURAL SCREAM — EXTENDED] I AM THE FALL — OF A THOUSANDS REIGNS! THE ECHO OF— A GUTTED— DIVINITY! [Choir] Lux cadit… lux cadit… The light collapses… the light collapses… [Pre-Chorus II] Let the last star dim under the weight of memory. Let the sky bend its knee to oblivion’s hymn. My veins burn with the fire of dying constellations— I rise on the wings of the abyss. [Chorus — Reprise] [GUTTURAL SCREAM] ASCEND— THROUGH— DECAY! Crown me in the remnants of a shattered dawn. I am the breath that curdles eternity, the storm that devours the roots of time. No god will claim me. No fate will chain me. I ascend through ruin. [Instrumental / Orchestral Break — 1 Minute] Strings surge like tidal waves. Brass roars beneath tremoring percussion. Choirs chant in minor-key dissonance. A single guttural rising under it all like a demon waking. [Verse III — Slow, Crushing, Tyrannical] Witness the bloom of the crimson horizon, where angels drown in the echo of their hymns. The citadels of heaven rupture and descend, their shards raining like funeral petals. I walk through their ruin wearing silence as armor, each heartbeat a hammer against the vault of the gods. My shadow engulfs the pillars of creation— trembling, glorious, unbound. [Final Bridge — Extended Gutturals] [GUTTURAL SCREAM — SUSTAINED] BRING FORTH THE NIGHT! BRING FORTH THE E N D! LET THE COSMOS— BOW — TO MY BREATH! [Choir] Regnum mortis… regnum aeternum… Kingdom of death… kingdom eternal… [Final Chorus] [GUTTURAL SCREAM] ASCENSION — OF — THE — WITHERED — CROWN! Let the world forget its final heartbeat. Let the void remember my name in fire. This is the dawn beyond oblivion, the throne forged from the bones of eternity. No god will claim me. No fate will chain me. I ascend. I ascend. I ascend. [Outro — Whispered] When the last light dies… and the stars surrender… my crown will burn
