Echoes of the Crown

I once wore a crown of gold,

The streets would bow, the story told.

I held the power, I held the key,

Now all I have is a memory.

My kingdom’s gone, the walls are cracked,

The throne I sat on, I can't go back.

The echoes of my reign still call,

But now I'm just a shadow on the wall.

I was the king, now I'm the fool,

My kingdom lost, no golden rule.

The voices sang, but now they’re gone,

All I have left is a broken song.

In the silence, I walk alone,

The crown is cold, I’ve lost my throne.

I built my empire, tall and wide,

But now it's falling, no place to hide.

The cheers are gone, the crowds have left,

I'm standing here, feeling bereft.

I used to see the fear in their eyes,

Now all I see are my own lies.

The crown I wore, it shines no more,

A king forgotten, a heart that’s sore.

I was the king, now I'm the fool,

My kingdom lost, no golden rule.

The voices sang, but now they’re gone,

All I have left is a broken song.

In the silence, I walk alone,

The crown is cold, I’ve lost my throne.

The city’s empty, the streets are bare,

I hear the whispers in the air.

Once I ruled, now I’m the past,

The glory faded, it didn’t last.

I built my world with blood and flame,

Now it’s ashes, and I’m to blame.

The crown I wore was heavy with pride,

Now it’s gone, nowhere to hide.

I was the king, now I'm the fool,

My kingdom lost, no golden rule.

The voices sang, but now they’re gone,

All I have left is a broken song.

In the silence, I walk alone,

The crown is cold, I’ve lost my throne.

Once I ruled with an iron hand,

Now I stand where shadows stand.

The crown’s forgotten, the story’s done,I was the king, now I’m no one.
