Lyrics:

I saw the fire before the spark
Before the banners turned to ash
I felt the tremor in the stone
Before the first collapse

I walked your halls of polished pride
I named the danger at the gate
You crowned the liar with your trust
And laughed at what I’d say

Gifted sight
But cursed unheard
Truth made fragile
In every word

I am Cassandra —
Voice in the flame
Singing the fall of your empire’s name
I am Cassandra —
Branded insane
Crowned with the weight of prophetic pain

You built your walls
You sealed your fate
Now hear me calling —
It’s too late

I saw the horse beneath the gold
The soldiers breathing in the dark
I saw your glory turn to smoke
Before the final spark

You called it fear
You called it lies
You said the gods were on your side
But I have watched the heavens close
And turn their gaze aside

Blessed sight
But no belief
Truth becomes
Your disbelief

I am Cassandra —
Voice in the flame
Singing the fall of your empire’s name
I am Cassandra —
Branded insane
Crowned with the weight of prophetic pain

You built your walls
You sealed your fate
Now hear me calling —
It’s too late

When the towers fall
And the silence breaks
When the sky runs red
And the marble shakes

Will you remember
The words I cried?
Or bury the truth
With your pride?


I am Cassandra —
Ash in the air
Witness to ruin and unanswered prayer
I am Cassandra —
Still I remain
Last voice echoing through the flame
