My pride now shattered, as I weep alone,
Once high on my throne, now nothing left,
No comfort, no friend, just despair I've known.
My world was vast, vibrant and prone
To riches and fame, glory bereft,
My pride now shattered, as I weep alone.
But now I'm forgotten, castaway stone,
The solitary fate I must accept,
No comfort, no friend, just despair I've known.
My heart aches, my soul now moan,
The pain engulfs me, the tears unleash,
My pride now shattered, as I weep alone.
My sorrow consumes me, can't be disowned,
For I have become a shadow, bereft,
No comfort, no friend, just despair I've known.
I beseech to the heavens, but it's just stone
No God, no mercy, nothing to beget,
My pride now shattered, as I weep alone,
No comfort, no friend, just despair I've known.
