Glory's A Shadow

I fought through fire, I bled through stone
Carved my story, but I stand alone
The echoes fade, the silence grows
No one left to see what I chose

The battle's won, but nothing feels right
I lost myself in the endless fight

Glory's a shadow, fading away
Nothing but ashes where heroes decay
The crown is broken, the cost too high
I won the war, but I don't know why

The scars remain, a permanent brand
A hollow victory I can't withstand
The world moves on, it forgets the pain
But I'm still standing in the rain

The battle's done, but nothing is whole
I gave my heart, and it stole my soul

Glory's a shadow, fading away
Nothing but ashes where heroes decay
The crown is broken, the cost too high
I won the war, but I don't know why

If this is triumph, then why do I bleed?
If I am free, then why can't I breathe?
Victory's silence cuts deeper than screams
I conquered the night, but I lost all my dreams

Glory's a shadow, fading away
Nothing but ashes where heroes decay
The crown is broken, the cost too high
I won the war, but I don't know why
Glory's a shadow, fading away
Nothing but ashes where heroes decay
The crown is broken, the cost too high
I won the war, but I don't know why
