Lyrics

I learned my name underneath the spot lights

Lost my voice building a throne

You thought that silence could not testify

(But I) Heard echoes I didn’t own

Fake smiles scaffold heavy lies

“Take the abuse and bleed clockwise”

No leash, no more restraint

I choose what’s real, I choose my name

I... I walked the chessboard blind

Delusion is the refuge of cowards

Black and white, stay in line

You forgot the queen holds the most power

Take aim

Strategy

Watch it fall apart

The masks slip and the mirrors break

Injury

Turned sovereignty

I won’t bleed to belong

I declare checkmate

I own the board

None of your pawns can

Conquer my world

I thrive in truth

While you lose control

I learned my worth

When I stood alone

I’m not your product, I’m not an object

Wounds close and scars do fade

Turn empty eyes inwards, see what you became

Listen... every slammed door sounds the same

Zwischenzug

End game

They already know my name

I matter in rooms where nothing’s sold

The story gets cold
