Lyrics
(Verse 1)
Built this kingdom, brick by brick, with you by my side
Swore a loyalty so thick, nothing could divide
We were diamonds, hard and bright, reflecting the sun
Now you're a ghost in the fading light, the damage is done
(Pre-Chorus)
Never thought the knife you'd hold, would pierce this close to the bone
The trust I blindly gave you, shattered on the cold, hard stone
(Chorus)
You wore a crown, a king of lies, a master of disguise
Now the truth is in your eyes, and the fury starts to rise
Shattered crown, a broken vow, the pieces fall around
I'll wear the scars, but I won't bow, I'll pick myself up off the ground
(Verse 2)
Blinded by affection's haze, I couldn't see the cracks
The whispers turned to burning rage, behind my trusting back
The promises we carved in stone, now crumble to dust
Left with echoes of a love unknown, a hollow, bitter trust
(Pre-Chorus)
Never thought the knife you'd hold, would pierce this close to the bone
The trust I blindly gave you, shattered on the cold, hard stone
(Chorus)
You wore a crown, a king of lies, a master of disguise
Now the truth is in your eyes, and the fury starts to rise
Shattered crown, a broken vow, the pieces fall around
I'll wear the scars, but I won't bow, I'll pick myself up off the ground
(Bridge)
The fire in my heart won't die, fueled by the sting of your deceit
I'll rise from the ashes, stronger, fly, my freedom bittersweet
(Chorus)
You wore a crown, a king of lies, a master of disguise
Now the truth is in your eyes, and the fury starts to rise
Shattered crown, a broken vow, the pieces fall around
I'll wear the scars, but I won't bow, I'll pick myself up off the ground
(Outro)
Yeah, I'll pick myself up off the ground, stronger, with a brand new sound
