Hold on Hold on to something Stay for the hilt of the sword you forged Stand up and go Your word is law Now stand Fate is laughing at me I cannot escape, escape this realm A victim drifting through tides of flame What a terrible horror My will escapes, my soul is void Loathing the rise of the same torturous sun Breathe deep to calm your thoughts Hold firm with trembling hands I have run from myself for too long To find my way back home Its tearing me up inside Darkness stirs inside my troubled mind Chains that bind forged from my design Ingrained are words of fear and doubt Constrict my will, I’ll prevail Left drowning in the horrors of yesterday Gather your strength now Leave out fear of the wicked So lost now in something I can’t break What I’ve become is something without shape Its tearing me up inside Breathe deep to calm your thoughts

I will never see the sun shining on pure soil Reborn into a world plagued in turmoil Pushed far from light This kingdom’s torn Torn between rulers of fallacy Words of malice drip from the mouth of the reflection You are my, You are my fears and my doubts Spawned from within Kneel before my throne creature of soil You are my flawed design You are the chains bind You made you face from mine Rise The flames we have sewn will consume our fields Soil once rich now plagued in turmoil This kingdom’s torn Torn between rulers of fallacy Words of malice drip from the mouth of the reflection You are my, You are my fears and my doubts Spawned from within Kneel at my throne You are my flawed design You are the chains bind You made you face from mine Burn, Burn your Sovereign Destroy your throne Burn, Burn your Sovereign and destroy your throne Your throne Burn your Sovereign now, burn your sovereign and destroy, destroy your throne Burn your Sovereign now, burn your sovereign and restore, restore this body Rise, rise to your own Become whole Kneel before my throne creature of soil

Cold creeping deep in my skin This crown is one of thorns, thorns from within Who are you? Identify yourself You wear your face the same as mine I’m just sick of this fiction Its so deceiving We share a face, but there’s more to me than you know This world’s no picture perfect, bleak seas and shattered skies Cold piercing eyes behind me All thrones are made of thorns now, thorns from within Who are you? Identify yourself You wear your face the same as mine I’m just sick Majesty, how firm will your hand hold? What will you cling to with all your prophets dead? Words spoken like a true king Brick by brick you lay them down Your throne is built on consulate lies Cold creeping deep in my skin This crown is one of thorns, thorns from within Who are you? Identify yourself You wear your face the same as mine I’m just sick of this fiction Its so deceiving We share a face, but there’s more to me than you know Majesty, how firm will your hand hold? What will you cling to with all your prophets dead?
