Let It Crumble

They’re calling my name again

Same voices… same desperation

It used to mean something

Now it just sounds like noise

⸻

Save us…

We need you…

Don’t leave us…

Come back…

⸻

I hear them through the silence still

Echoes bending to their will

Same old prayers I used to chase

Now they fade without a trace

I gave them everything I had

Every good and every bad

Now they’re screaming at the void

For the man they once destroyed

⸻

They want a hero

I’m just a shadow now

⸻

Let it crumble

Let it fall into the dust

I’m done bleeding for their trust

If they’re searching for a sign

They won’t find it here in mine

I won’t answer, I won’t run

I’m not their chosen one

Let it crumble

If it breaks, then let it be

It’s not my war, it’s not on me

⸻

Save us… save us…

We’re falling… we’re falling…

Don’t leave us… don’t leave us…

We’re calling… we’re calling…

⸻

They built their hope into my name

Then watched me drown inside the blame

Now they beg for my return

Like I forgot how bad it burned

Another hero, let them try

Another savior, let them rise

I won’t wear that crown again

I won’t break just to pretend

⸻

They want a hero

But I buried him instead

⸻

Let it crumble

Let it fall into the dust

I’m done bleeding for their trust

If they’re searching for a sign

They won’t find it here in mine

I won’t answer, I won’t run

I’m not their chosen one

Let it crumble

If it breaks, then let it be

It’s not my war, it’s not on me

⸻

No more saving

No more lies

No more wearing their disguise

If the sky falls, let it break

I won’t move, I won’t take

⸻

Save us…

Please…

Don’t go…

We need you…

⸻

They’ll keep calling

And one day…

they’ll understand

Silence…

is my answer
