Chains and Crowns

Chorus

She watched fire blow over hills in a pale moonlight sky

If you never come for me like crows watching over me

I might’ve drifted into insanity

She swore her loyalty to me, myself, and I

Right before she lit up the sky with fire and smoke

Post-Chorus

Chains, chains, crown, crown

Vines, vines, burn down

Verse 2

All that time in her tower, she sat alone

Brewing her powers, waiting for the unknown

I can see it all when the rain is gone

She tried to save my heart, but I was already gone

Pre-Chorus

Keep it one hundred degrees, burning over land and sea

Now the darkness is hers, sleepless nights unfold for me

Chorus

She watched fire blow over hills in a pale moonlight sky

If you never come for me like crows watching over me

I might’ve drifted into insanity

She swore her loyalty to me, myself, and I

Right before she lit up the sky with fire and smoke

Post-Chorus

Chains, chains, crown, crown

Vines, vines, burn

Post-Chorus

Chains, chains, crown, crown

Vines, vines, burn

Bridge

Under her gaze I falter, the shadows carve my name

Tempted by the power in the flicker of her flame

Bitterness in longing, her secrets haunting me

I wear the marks she left like tattoos I cannot see

Verse 3

She called to the night and I answered with fear

She wrapped her stories in smoke, whispered close to my ear

Her promise a fever, threading through every dream

Stolen by her magic, torn apart at the seam

Pre-Chorus

Keep it one hundred degrees, burning over land and sea

The echoes linger now, a young god’s mutiny

Chorus

She watched fire blow over hills in a pale moonlight sky

If you never come for me like crows watching over me

I might’ve drifted into insanity

She swore her loyalty to me, myself, and I

Right before she lit up the sky with fire and smoke

Post-Chorus

Chains, chains, crown, crown

Vines, vines, gone

Outro

Ashes fall like a warning, settling on my skin

No promise left unbroken, no kingdom left within

Her silhouette receding, dissolving from my sight

Still I bear her burden every endless night

Silent are the towers, empty in the dawn

The forest hides her memory but I keep hanging on

Her name drifts through embers, turning gold to gray

Love was a burning pyre, now I fade away

Post-Chorus

Chains, chains, crown, crown

Vines, vines, fade down
