Ashcoleath - Fractured Crown

[Intro: Spoken, whispered, calm] „An empty hall, dark and cold Gone is every soul Lost to madness, the madness of mine“ [Instrumental Intro] [Verse 1] I built a throne of broken bones A kingdom forged in silent groans My name was carved in rust and shame Now I wear the crown of blame [Pre-Chorus] I scream but no one hears I bleed through all these years [Chorus] Fractured crown, I wear it still A shattered soul, a twisted will I reign in ruins, lost and torn A king of nothing, battle-worn [Verse 2] I chased the light, but found the void Each step I took, a truth destroyed The mirror cracked, the mask betrayed Now I’m the ghost I used to hate [Brakedown] [Pre-Chorus] I scream but no one hears I bleed through all these years [Chorus repeat] Fractured crown, I wear it still A shattered soul, a twisted will I reign in ruins, lost and torn A king of nothing, battle-worn [Instrumental Bridge] [Bridge – Growled/Spoken] No throne, no god, no peace inside Just scars that speak and dreams that died I am the war I cannot win I am the fire beneath my skin [Final Chorus – Extended] Fractured crown, I wear it still A shattered soul, a twisted will I reign in ruins, lost and torn A king of nothing, battle-worn Fractured crown, it cuts me deep I sow the pain I’ll always reap Ashcoleath will never kneel This broken reign is all that’s real [Instrumental Outro]
