Lyrics
Golden promises turned to dust
In the palace of broken trust
You wore your lies like precious stones
While I built kingdoms all alone
The mirror shows what I've become
A shadow of what we'd begun
Your whispered words cut so deep
Now I'm the secret that you keep
Falls like rain upon my soul
I won't bow to your reflection
I'm taking back control
Farewell to the shattered crown
Watch it crumble to the ground
Every tear I shed for you
Was a diamond wasted through
I'm rising from the ashes now
Breaking free from sacred vows
Farewell to the shattered crown
I won't let you drag me down
Cathedral bells rang out your name
While I was drowning in the shame
Of loving someone made of stone
Who left me bleeding and alone
In the silence of my chamber
I can hear the angels cry
For the love that we have murdered
And the truth beneath your lies
But I am stronger than your poison
I am fire, I am steel!
Farewell to the shattered crown
Watch it crumble to the ground
Every scar you left on me
Is a badge of victory
I'm soaring from the ashes now
Breaking free from sacred vows
Farewell to the shattered crown
You will never drag me down!
The crown lies broken at my feet
My liberation is complete
