The Archangel Theory - Crown of Ashes

Описание: Verse I

In the ruins of time I awaken
With the weight of a crown on my soul
Broken vows in the whispering silence
Of a kingdom I never controlled
Shadows dance in the fire of doubt
Hear the ghosts call my name from the dark
Between faith and a blind devotion
I’m the flame and the permanent scar

Pre-Chorus

If the heavens are watching me fall
Let them witness the truth in my eyes
I’m a king of an invisible empire
Condemned by the throne I despise

Chorus

I am the heir of eternal night
Crowned in ashes and flame
Between the promise and the sin
I walk where no one remains
Let the fire cleanse every lie
Let the stars learn how to bend
If I fall for the last time tonight
Let it be just to rise again

Verse II

Shattered mirrors reveal my reflection
All the faces I tried to deny
Every choice is a blade of confession
Every truth is a sacred goodbye
I swore allegiance to destiny
While betraying the light I once knew
Now the past stands before me in silence
Demanding the blood that is due

Pre-Chorus

If the gods are asleep in the storm
Who will answer the cry of my soul?
I’m the martyr of my own creation
And the jailer who swallowed the keyhole

Chorus

I am the heir of eternal night
Crowned in ashes and flame
Between the promise and the sin
I walk where no one remains
Let the fire cleanse every lie
Let the stars learn how to bend
If I fall for the last time tonight
Let it be just to rise again

Bridge

Voices from beyond the veil
Are calling me to decide
No glory is born without scars
No truth ever lives without sacrifice

Rise from the fall
Break the chain

Final Chorus

I am the heir of eternal night
But the dawn ignites my pain
From the ashes I forge my name
From the silence I reign
If the end is the only beginning
Let fear finally fade

I fall…
To rise again.
