Pilgrims Grey

Lyrics

I've walked among you shaped your dreams
A whispered hope your silent screams
You built your towers to touch the sky
But found no gods—just me nearby
I speak the peace you long to feel
While planting thorns you'll never heal

You called for freedom I broke the chains
Your birthright's gone yet you feel no pain
I gave you wonders I gave you fire
And watched you bow to your own desires

Who can stand against my reign
The king of ash the prince of gain?
I offer all yet leave you bare
A crown of stars a throne of air
I shape your hearts I mold your creed
Your flesh my canvas your souls my seed
Who is able to make war with me
When I am all you choose to see?

I speak your language I know your needs
You crave a shepherd—I'm all you heed
You hunger for justice but truth's too sharp
So I play the strings of your restless hearts

You see a lion you hear the Lamb
But I am neither—I am the plan

I showed you wonders in skies of flame
You begged for power; I signed your name
I built your kingdoms I sealed your fate
Your god in flesh—arrived too late

Who can stand against my reign
The king of ash the prince of gain?
I offer all yet leave you bare
A crown of stars a throne of air
I shape your hearts I mold your creed
Your flesh my canvas your souls my seed
Who is able to make war with me
When I am all you choose to see?

I've bent the heavens rewrote the laws
Turned prophets silent exposed their flaws
I've blurred the lines of flesh and bone
Made you believe the lie you've sown
You'll raise your hands you'll cry my name
And curse the light that could end the game

Who can stand against my reign
The king of ash the prince of gain?
I offer all yet leave you bare
A crown of stars a throne of air
I shape your hearts I mold your creed
Your flesh my canvas your souls my seed
Who is able to make war with me
When I am all you choose to see?

I am the dawn you longed to find
A shadow dressed in borrowed light
Your oaths are mine your fate is sealed
The truth was clear yet you kneeled
