[Intro – soft piano, distant choir]
Can you hear the echoes…
They’re calling me home.
[Verse 1 – clean, emotional]
Every scar, every broken vow
Led me here, I can’t turn back now
The crown is gone, the fire remains
I found my soul inside the pain
The ashes whisper through the night
I’m still breathing, I’ll still fight
Every ghost that tried to take my name
Fades to silence in the flame
[Pre-Chorus – whispered/screamed]
You tried to bury me alive
But I’ll haunt you for all of time
[Chorus – soaring clean vocals with backing screams]
Echoes of the fallen, voices I’ve known
Carried through the darkness, I walk alone
Cursed and crownless, but I still rise
I’ll wear these scars as my battle cries
Echoes of the fallen, they never fade
Guiding my heart through the hell you made
[Verse 2 – screamed, heavier]
I see the shadows, I feel their eyes
Every liar wearing a king’s disguise
But I won’t kneel to the ghosts you praise
I’ll burn their names in the endless blaze
Every chain you wrapped around my soul
Broke apart when I lost control
Now I stand on a field of bones
Claiming back what was always my own
[Breakdown – guttural screams + chugs]
(ECHOES!)
I am the curse you can’t erase
(FALLEN!)
I’ll carve my mark on this broken place
[Final Chorus – clean/screamed fusion, epic]
Echoes of the fallen, voices I’ve known
Carried through the darkness, I walk alone
Cursed and crownless, but I still rise
I’ll wear these scars as my battle cries
Echoes of the fallen, they never fade
Guiding my heart through the hell you made
[Outro – fading whispers + piano]
Can you hear the echoes…
They’ll never die.
