Cheap Throne 가사

Breath in, teeth clenched Say it louder Gold crowns made of plastic Promises dissolve on sight Everyone wants loyalty As long as it's one-sided Pretty words, borrowed morals Friendship sold by the hour You shake hands, cross fingers Calling betrayal power Funny how trust gets fragile When attention changes hands You swear it's not personal Then do it again Build your kingdom out of lies Call it love, call it fate When the lights go out tonight See what loyalty weighs You trade souls for applause Wear a smile, sharpen knives All these cheap, hollow crowns Cut the heads they sit on tight You say: Nothing really matters Till it's you left out to dry Then suddenly it's serious Suddenly you cry Everyone's brave in groups Everyone folds alone You don't stand for each other You stand where it's warm No one leaves clean-handed No one stays the same You don't fall from grace You give it away Build your kingdom out of noise Call it truth, call it right When the crowd turns overnight See who stays, who hides You sell trust for momentum Call it growth, call it pride All these cheap, hollow crowns Crack the moment pressure bites Loyalty isn't loud It shows up when there's nothing to gain Build your empire out of smoke Watch it vanish in the rain When the fun dries up Who remains? You wanted fast, you wanted more You wanted shine, not scars All these cheap, hollow crowns Never made anyone a king Keep the crown I keep my spine
