Echoes of the Crownless

Fallen from the heights, no strength to climb On broken knees I pray, but I'm running out of time I walk through fire, the pain I can't resist Chains of sorrow, bound with iron fists Gasping for the air, the fumes that choke my breath I'm staring into void, at the masquerade of death I'm sinking in despair Life's weight I can't escape Crushed heart, shattered will Endless falls, I'm losing faith I'm drowning in the shadows The darkest haze Screaming silence, deafening call The void's embrace, where heroes fall Looming tempest, thunder's breath Spiraling down, I court my death In the abyss, where light decays Beneath the crush of blackened days Blackened sky (blackened sky) Echoes of a lullaby Whispers turn to dust, in the twilight's cry Heavy chains (heavy chains) Melodies of ancient strains Eternal night unfolds, where the silence reigns Candle's flame (candle's flame) Barely alive, it flickers in the storm Whispered fears, the ghostly choir performs I face the end (I face the end) In the shadow's chill, the frost of darker times Eyes grow dim, surrendering to night's chimes Crimson moon (crimson moon) Gazes down with an eerie frown Blood runs cold, in the midnight's hold Lost dreams (lost dreams) Echo through the scream of the gale Carried away, where the damned souls wail Hope's last light (hope's light) Withers in the doom-laden sky Forsaken souls wail, their unending cry I tread on embers, where the fires were bright Lost kingdoms of ash, consumed by the night [Chorus] In the eye of the storm, where shadows dwell Chanting prayers to ancient gods (ancient gods) In the ruins, where we once thrived The bells toll for the time that's lost (time that's lost) In the eye of the storm, where we fight to survive Haunted echoes of a crownless king (crownless king) Marching slower as the martyrs sing
