Left to rot

(Verse 1)

In the quiet where the mirrors crack,

I whisper names that won’t come back.

Ghosts dance in the corner of my eyes,

But never close enough to lie.

I set a table for the dead,

And toast to all the things unsaid.

My heart, a lock without a key,

And silence, my eternity.

(Chorus)

I will walk these halls alone,

Crown of rust upon my throne.

No hand to hold, no voice to call,

Just the echo of my fall.

Let the stars forget my name—

They were never mine to claim.

In this dark, I’ve made my home…

And I will die forever alone.

(Verse 2)

The moonlight’s cold against my skin,

Like lovers I have never been.

The world moves on, and I stay still,

Drinking dusk like bitter pills.

Hope’s a blade I used to trust,

Now it rots beneath the dust.

Every smile's a phantom grin,

Another lie I won't let in.

(Chorus)

I will walk these halls alone,

Crown of rust upon my throne.

No hand to hold, no voice to call,

Just the echo of my fall.

Let the stars forget my name—

They were never mine to claim.

In this dark, I’ve made my home…

And I will die forever alone.

(Bridge)

No lover's breath will warm my chest,

No gentle arms, no final rest.

Just me and shadows I’ve outgrown,

A king of ash with no one known.

(Final Chorus)

I will walk these halls alone,

Crown of rust upon my throne.

No hand to hold, no voice to call,

Just the echo of it all.

Let the world forget my face,

Let me vanish, leave no trace…

For I was born to be unknown…

And I will live… forever alone.
