🎶 Lyrics & concept: Tales of Power and Doom

"The Last Oath Was Not Mine"

The banner fell without a sound,
No horn was blown, no cheers were found.
They called it treason.
I call it truth.

I swore my name to words of steel,
To crowns they said were forged to heal.
But every vow I learned to keep
Was carved by liars buried deep.

I wore their mark upon my chest,
A borrowed cause, a borrowed crest.
They fed us faith, they sold us fear,
And named it honor year by year.

I watched the innocent kneel and pray,
While righteous men looked the other way.
If this is law, if this is right,
Then I renounce this sacred lie.

The last oath was not mine to keep,
It served a throne that lied in sleep.
I broke the chain, I crossed the line,
I chose the truth — the crime was signed.
Call me breaker, call me damned,
I laid my sword in truer hands.
I stand accused by holy fire,
But the last oath was not mine.

They crowned the butcher, robed in gold,
And named his hunger “prophecy foretold.”
Each order sealed with holy seals,
Each corpse dismissed as “necessary zeal.”

I saw the script behind the play,
The bloodstained price they made us pay.
No gods were watching from above —
Only men in masks of love.

I held my ground, I held my breath,
Between blind faith and chosen death.
If loyalty demands my soul,
Then I refuse that final toll.

The last oath was not mine to keep,
It served a throne that lied in sleep.
I broke the chain, I crossed the line,
I chose the truth — the crime was signed.
Call me breaker, call me damned,
I laid my sword in truer hands.
I stand accused by holy fire,
But the last oath was not mine.

I did not betray the vow.
I betrayed the lie it served.

The last oath was not mine to keep,
It served a throne that lied in sleep.
I broke the chain, I crossed the line,
I chose the truth — the crime was signed.
Call me breaker, call me damned,
I laid my sword in truer hands.
I stand accused by holy fire,
But the last oath was not mine.

The last oath was not mine to keep,
I will not guard what feeds the weak.
Let every banner burn in shame,
I’ll bear alone the traitor’s name.
If history writes me as the foe,
Let truth be all I’ve ever known.
I walk away through ash and flame —
The last oath was not mine.

Let them sing of broken faith…
I stood where falsehood ends.
