[Verse 1]
Crowned in the cosmos, I stood unopposed,
A titan of will where no mortal had strode.
The heavens bent downward, the stars sang my name,
Their voices like embers, devoured in flame.
I reached through the void with hands wrought of light,
Yet found only shadows consuming my sight.
[Pre-Chorus]
The throne I have taken now coils like a snake,
A power unyielding, a force none forsake.
Yet wisdom is silence, and silence now speaks,
The gods that I conquered now whisper through me.
[Chorus]
Torn from the heavens, cast into dust,
Bound by the tendrils of madness and rust.
Knowledge forbidden now carves through my veins,
An emperor drowning in all he has gained.
[Verse 2]
The echoes of ages twist into my spine,
Each secret I’ve stolen now feeding decline.
A temple of horrors where prayers go unheard,
I kneel at the altar, yet speak not a word.
[Pre-Chorus]
The throne I have taken now coils like a snake,
A power unyielding, a force none forsake.
Yet wisdom is silence, and silence now speaks,
The gods that I conquered now whisper through me.
[Chorus]
Torn from the heavens, cast into dust,
Bound by the tendrils of madness and rust.
Knowledge forbidden now carves through my veins,
An emperor drowning in all he has gained.
[Bridge]
The crown on my temple melts into my skin,
A curse of dominion where gods once had been.
Their laughter is endless, their voices invade,
An architect doomed by the world he has made.
[Verse 3]
A lightless expanse where no echoes remain,
A scepter that shatters, a kingdom in chains.
No longer immortal, no longer divine,
The tendrils consume what was never just mine.
[Chorus]
Torn from the heavens, cast into dust,
Bound by the tendrils of madness and rust.
Knowledge forbidden now carves through my veins,
An emperor drowning in all he has gained.
[Outro]
The stars turn away, the cosmos is blind,
A king left to rot in the depths of his mind.
The crown on my temple melts into my skin,
A curse of dominion where gods once have been...
