One Crown Version 2 by Lamia_Infernalis - Zona

Lyrics

Intro (Instrumental)

(Palm-muted guitars, bass pulse, distant cello drone, rim clicks)

⸻

Verse 1

Heaven is supposed to be the work of God

Angel posters on my Sunday wall

Gold-stamp ticket in my back pocket

For a sky I never saw at all

I carved your name in my teenage wrist

Felt the choir shake my teeth and jaw

If this is mercy, why am I bleeding

Why does your scripture taste like war

⸻

Pre-Chorus

Say it softer, say it clean

Say it’s love, not gasoline

If you’re holy, help me see

Why fear sounds just like belief

(Drums rise, cello climbs, guitars open)

⸻

Chorus (First — Big, but controlled)

One throne, one fire, one crown

God and the Devil wear the same face now

One voice screaming me down

Praying and cursing with the same damn mouth

Are you gonna save me

Or burn me down

One throne, one fire, one crown

⸻

Verse 2

Bible on the dash like a loaded gun

Red letters screaming in my face

Devil in the mirror looks just like you

Same cold eyes, same holy rage

Violins crying over Sunday smoke

Cellos dragging like a funeral train

I keep on kneeling, you keep on dealing

Hope and terror like a card game

⸻

Pre-Chorus (Shorter, More Desperate)

If this faith is meant to heal

Why does it cut so deep and real

⸻

Chorus (Second — Bigger)

One throne, one fire, one crown

God and the Devil are the same thing now

One voice I can’t drown out

Love and fear from the same damn mouth

Are you gonna save me

Or burn me down

One throne, one fire, one crown

⸻

Bridge (Half-Time, Drop)

(Drums half-time, tremolo guitars, strings exposed)

So who do I thank when my pulse still ticks

Who do I curse when the car hits stone

Is my hallelujah just a laugh track

Are you answering or am I alone

If heaven is supposed to be the work of God

Why do I hear you in the furnace sound

Are you wearing two masks or just one torn skin

Same sharp teeth in the same bright crown

(Everything cuts except strings)

⸻

Final Chorus (Explode — Gang Vocals)

ONE THRONE — ONE FIRE — ONE CROWN

SAY YOU’RE THE SAVIOR — SHOW ME HOW

ONE VOICE TEARING ME DOWN

LOVE AND HELL FROM THE SAME DAMN MOUTH

SAVE ME OR BURN ME DOWN

SAVE ME OR BURN ME DOWN

ONE THRONE — ONE FIRE — ONE CROWN

⸻

Outro

(Feedback, bowed strings, final shouted “ONE CROWN”)
