The Crown Falls
By Born Ethereal · Neoclassical Metal
[Verse]
A shadow slips through gilded halls
A dagger whispers
The kingdom falls
Blood on the silk
No time to stall
The crown tips
The mighty crawl
[Chorus - two females]
The crown falls
The silence screams
A shattered throne
Undone dreams
The crown falls
The court is blind
Power fades
And fate’s unkind
[Verse 2 - female metal growls and harsh vocals]
Torchlight flickers
Secrets burn
No path to mercy
No return
Eyes like daggers
Cold and stern
The wheel spins
The tide will churn
[Prechorus]
A crown of gold
Now stained with red
A fleeting ghost where rulers tread
[Chorus]
The crown falls
The silence screams
A shattered throne
Undone dreams
The crown falls
The court is blind
Power fades
And fate’s unkind
[Breakdown - chaotic deathcore breakdown]
Did the stars see this night unfold
Did the earth weep
Did the skies grow cold
A whisper
A gasp
A story untold
The weight of a crown
Too heavy to hold
