Lyrics:
The crown is hollow (yet still we kneel)
We crown the absence and call it real
The crown is hollow (and from this day)
A world will learn what silence reigns
Stone halls echo with borrowed faith
Oaths sworn by men who are already dead
Heavy lies the crown and the crown
remembers every f*cking neck it breaks
But nothing lives beneath the weight
Crown of bone
Throne of rust
Rule the many
The crown is hollow (yet still we kneel)
We crown the absence and call it real
The crown is hollow (and from this day)
A world will learn what silence reigns
Crown of bone
Throne of rust
Rule the many
Every crown becomes a wound

Nothing survives this

F*ck

It knows no mercy

Crowned in absence this hollow king

The crown is set the vow is made
Not for glory not for hope
A single figure to bear the weight
So the many never have to know
A life forged in shadow a heart carved in stone

Every step a burden every breath a loan

The crown is hollow (yet still we kneel)
A dying symbol
Made to feel eternalKingdom of dust
Heads roll breath held heavy

All fall

It does not rule It devours

It does not lead It consumes

Every king becomes a warning
