Empire of Misery

---

**Title: Empire of Misery**

*(Verse 1)*  

Built it brick by brick, now it’s burning down  

Ashes in my hands, no king, no crown  

Walls I raised to hide the screams  

Now they echo back my broken dreams  

*(Pre-Chorus)*  

Tried to hold on, tried to believe  

But hope’s a ghost I can't retrieve  

*(Chorus)*  

**Empire of Misery, that’s all I see**  

**Crumbled towers where my heart used to be**  

**This ain't some kingdom lost in history**  

**It's my broken fucking life—Empire of Misery**  

*(Verse 2)*  

Pages torn from books I’ll never write  

Sleepless wars I fight every night  

No army, no throne, just a voice unheard  

Screaming truth through every cursed word  

*(Pre-Chorus)*  

Tried to matter, tried to be free  

But I’m the ruin I used to flee  

*(Chorus)*  

**Empire of Misery, that’s all I see**  

**Crumbled towers where my heart used to be**  

**This ain't some kingdom lost in history**  

**It's my broken fucking life—Empire of Misery**  

*(Bridge)*  

I lit the flames, I bore the scars  

Cursed the sky, counted the stars  

No legacy, just shattered scenes  

A haunted past wrapped in failed dreams  

*(Final Chorus)*  

**Empire of Misery, that’s my decree**  

**Torn apart by what was meant to set me free**  

**No myth, no glory, just reality**  

**It's my broken fucking life—Empire of Misery**
