[Verse 1]
I was sitting on a throne made of porcelain and gold
Every single secret that they wanted, I was told
They were bowing at my high heels, begging for a taste
Spilling all their liquor just to compliment my waist
Thought I built a fortress out of love and pretty text
Never checking over my shoulder for what was coming next
[Pre-Chorus]
One slip of the tongue, one crack in the glass
And the saints turn to wolves, and they move real fast
[Chorus]
Oh, the spotlight is blinding when it turns into a fire
They’ll tear down the tеmple just to watch it go higher
Yestеrday they loved me, now they’re digging up the dirt
Funny how a lifetime can be ruined in a word
They were clapping in the front row, now they’re pulling the trigger
The switch-up is a bitch, and the shadow’s getting bigger
Yeah, the whole world turns when the wind changes flavor
And the crown you thought was yours, was built by a traitor
[Verse 2]
Now the messages hit like stones against the wall
Everybody’s crowded just to navigate the fall
It’s a fragile kind of magic when your kingdom is a screen
They’ll crown you as a goddess, then they’ll crucify the queen
It only took a second for the narrative to bend
Now I’m looking at the graveyard of every single friend
[Pre-Chorus]
One slip of the tongue, one crack in the glass
And the saints turn to wolves, and they move real fast
[Chorus]
Oh, the spotlight is blinding when it turns into a fire
They’ll tear down the temple just to watch it go higher
Yesterday they loved me, now they’re digging up the dirt
Funny how a lifetime can be ruined in a word
They were clapping in the front row, now they’re pulling the trigger
The switch-up is a bitch, and the shadow’s getting bigger
Yeah, the whole world turns when the wind changes flavor
And the crown you thought was yours, was built by a traitor
[Bridge]
The room goes cold like a stadium after the lights cut out
All that roaring turns to silence I can almost hear the doubt
Every face is a mirror I don’t recognize anymore
Smiling like they never loved me on the night I hit the floor
They write my name in headlines just to watch it fall apart
Turn my blood into a story they can carry in their hearts
And I stand in the echo where the truth gets rearranged
While a thousand quiet voices call my innocence “a change”
[Breakdown]
Did you get the satisfaction that you wanted from the kill?
Do you feel any redemption now the room has gone still?
You all lined up for the execution…
Selling out the friendship for a cheap illusion
[Chorus]
Oh, the spotlight is blinding when it turns into a fire
They’ll tear down the temple just to watch it go higher
Yesterday they loved me, now they’re digging up the dirt
Funny how a lifetime can be ruined in a word
They were clapping in the front row, now they’re pulling the trigger
The switch-up is a bitch, and the shadow’s getting bigger
Yeah, the whole world turns when the wind changes flavor
And the crown you thought was yours, was built by a traitor
[Outro]
The whole world turns
When the lies get louder
And the crown you thought was yours
Was built by a traitor
