Milo Nova - Empty Thrones Lyrics

[Intro]
Sitting in this empty mansion
Cold vodka numbing my reflection
These thrones ain't worth the depression
Legacy's just a f*cked up lesson

[Verse 1]
Silver spoons turned to needles in my veins
Family portraits watching as I fade
Daddy's money couldn't buy me peace
Now I'm haunting halls of my deceased
Chandelier's swinging, dust in the air
Ghost of my bloodline sitting in these chairs
Inherited trauma, inherited pain
Watch me burn it down in the pouring rain

[Chorus]
Empty thrones, empty souls
Everything they gave me left me cold
Empty thrones, empty homes
Building castles out of broken bones
Yeah, yeah
F*ck these crowns, they weigh me down
Rather be a nobody in this ghost town

[Verse 2]
Sunday dinners feel like funeral rites
Porcelain faces hiding all our fights
Marble floors beneath my tired feet
Every step echoes my defeat
Found some pills in mother's drawer
Now I know what she was waiting for
Golden cage, but I'm the one who's trapped
Living life between the cracks, yeah

[Chorus]
Empty thrones, empty souls
Everything they gave me left me cold
Empty thrones, empty homes
Building castles out of broken bones
Yeah, yeah
F*ck these crowns, they weigh me down
Rather be a nobody in this ghost town

[Bridge]
Blood don't mean shit when your heart's gone black
Can't resurrect the past, can't take it back
Drowning in this vodka sea
Finally feeling f*cking free

[Outro]
Let these empty thrones collect the dust
Watch my legacy turn to rust
Everything they built, I'll let it fade
This is how an empire gets unmade
Yeah, this is how an empire gets unmade
