KINGDOM OF CARDS // LYRICS
Gave it all to burn forever underneath the rain
Drowning in the present of a past that I couldn’t change
Writing songs instead of letters because I’m too afraid
Afraid of coming back to find that everything is the same
I made my way through hell again, I paid for my mistakes
Next time I think I’ll stay awhile and pour myself a drink
When I return, I’ll look for you, so listen for your name
If you can make it out above the roaring of the flames
If it’s the mask you want, then it’s the mask that you will get
But when I take it off remember that you asked for this
I tore myself apart to give you all that I could give
Don’t think that I will let it go
Don’t think that I’ll forget
I thought I wanted legacy, I thought I wanted fame
I didn’t know I’d lose all my loved ones in exchange
Left them all behind and yeah for that I am ashamed
But that’s the price I’m paying ‘til I’m buried in my grave
I’ll do it all over again from the start
And this time you’re not leaving me in the dark
You took me for granted now look where you are
Atop of a kingdom you built out of cards

This song is criminally underrated. The chorus with the choir is one of the best I've heard in recent years, it fits damn well and is so powerful and unique in itself.

[@remingtonleithforlife]

"If its the mask you want, then its the mask youll get. But when i take it off, remember that you asked for this" hits different.

"I thought I wanted Legacy I thought I wanted fame, I didn't know I'd lose all my love ones in exchange" probably the line that hits deepest for me knowing what happened to Noah and his family and friends

[@1Mr.Qman1]

Я согласен с тобой чел

[@kattimper3671]

Yeah I love Dethrone. If I'm understanding what they're trying to say. I preface what I'm gonna say as TMI, but Dethrone elicits pure rage (it's the cousin to hurt and pain) in me for my mom taken away and then wtf, there suddenly goes my dad too so I picture being the atheist who accepts hell but having my request for a quick detour where all I wanted before I burn is to spit in God's face. Then I'll take place with the actual evil of this world and I'll fuck with the murderers, rapists and child molesters. Lol I bet you weren't expecting this diatribe to show up in your notifications

I am convinced after listening the album twice that this is the best song on the record. It reminds me of something that I can't exactly pinpoint in my memories but it sounds very familiar and evokes an irresistible urge of some kind.
