Lyrics
The words.
**[Intro – whispered over feedback]**
You thought...
You carved your name into me.
You were wrong.
---
**[Verse 1]**
Walked into this room like thunder
Dust still hanging in the light
Found your shadow on my mirror
Wiped it clean without a fight
Every word you threw behind me
Every chain you swore I'd wear
Turns to ash beneath my footsteps
There was never anything there
---
**[Pre-Chorus]**
Don't mistake my silence
For another open door
I don't bury ghosts...
I erase the fucking floor.
---
**[Chorus – screamed]**
I'M NOT JUST A GIRL!
I'M A PRINCESS!
A QUEEN!
A **BLADE!**
You don't get to write my story
You don't get to speak my name
No guilt!
No shame!
No memory left to claim!
There are...
**NO STRINGS ON ME!**
---
**[Verse 2]**
Keep your broken little kingdom
Wear your crown of sympathy
I won't live inside the prison
That you tried to build for me
You mistook my heart for weakness
Thought compassion meant I'd stay
Now I'm watching every chain you forged
Rust and fall away
---
**[Breakdown]**
Nothing...
But...
My...
Name.
*(drums drop)*
Nothing...
But...
My...
NAME!
---
**[Bridge – spoken, cold]**
I didn't come here
To win you back.
I came here...
To erase a memory
From a board
It never belonged on.
When I leave...
There won't even be
An outline
Of where you stood.
---
**[Final Chorus – all in]**
I'M NOT JUST A GIRL!
I'M A PRINCESS!
A QUEEN!
A **BLADE!**
I don't carry yesterday
I don't answer to your blame
No chains!
No scars!
No throne built from your pain!
There are...
NO STRINGS!
NO SHADOWS!
NO MASTER!
NO SAVIOR!
NO GHOSTS!
NO GODS!
NOTHING...
BUT...
MY NAME!
---
**[Outro]**
Remember this.
You didn't lose me.
You simply discovered...
I was never yours.
You thought...
You carved your name into me.
You were wrong.

**[Verse 1]**
Walked into this room like thunder
