Lost Kings

Verse 1: In shadows where the echoes creep, Kings on thrones, but the secrets deep, Crowned in gold, yet the heart’s a thief, I’m a phantom in the mirror, can’t find relief. Whispers in the dark, they call my name, Masked intentions, it’s a twisted game, I wear the crown, but I’m lost in the scheme, A king of nothing, drowning in the dream. Verse 2: Lyrical nonsense, spitting out the void, Fighting for a throne that I never enjoyed, I am who I cannot be, a ghost in the scene, Shame in the reflection, trapped in between. Kings rise and fall, but I’m stuck in this fight, A silhouette of power, fading out of sight, In a kingdom of chaos, where the shadows reign, I’m the echo of a king, but I wear the pain. Verse 1) In the shadows where the memories linger, Thoughts twist like smoke, a ghost on my finger, Heart heavy, like a stone in my chest, Lost in the echoes, can’t find no rest. Every corner’s a reminder of battles I fought, Lessons learned, but it feels like I’m caught, In a cycle of pain, like a vinyl that’s scratched, Spinning tales of regret, every moment dispatched. Staring at the skyline, but the colors feel gray, Dreams fading fast, like the light of the day, I’m a soldier in the silence, marching through the dark, Searching for a spark, but it’s just a cold mark. Voices in my head, they whisper and taunt, Memories like chains, they bind and they haunt, But I rise from the ashes, though the scars tell a tale, In this melancholic maze, I’ll find my own trail.
