Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Boots by the doorway

You never took them off for me

Grease on your knuckles

But your hands never reached my cheek

I wore your last name

Like armor two sizes too big

Hung every word you dropped

Like medals I never did win

[Chorus]

I built a throne in your shadow

Crowned you king of a broken home

Carved my heart in your image

But you never carved my name in stone

I kept my wounds where you’d see them

Still you stare straight through my skin

I’d burn this throne in your shadow

Just to feel you call me “son” again

[Verse 2]

I learned your temper

Before I ever learned to shave

You praised every stranger

But my triumphs went to waste

I’d fracture to fit

Inside the stories that you told

You raised your glass to everyone

But left my chair cold

[Chorus]

I built a throne in your shadow

Crowned you king of a broken home

Carved my heart in your image

But you never carved my name in stone

I kept my wounds where you’d see them

Still you stare straight through my skin

I’d burn this throne in your shadow

Just to feel you call me “son” again

[Bridge]

You’re the storm in my mirror (hey!)

I’m the crack in your frame

Chasing crumbs of your approval

Like they’re diamonds in the drain

I know I’ll die an orphan

With your blood in my veins

I’m the echo of your footsteps

You’re the one who never came

[Chorus]

I built a throne in your shadow

Crowned you king of a broken home

Carved my heart in your image

But you never carved my name in stone

I kept my wounds where you’d see them

Still you stare straight through my skin

I’ll tear this throne from your shadow

Let the ashes cleanse my name

You were never there to claim me

But I’ll be more than your shame
