Jesse Lee - [New Single] The Phantom Crown | Concept EP [Symphony of the Shattered] 03

The emotional core of this track is inspired by the profound emptiness the Count faces after executing his meticulous revenge and confronting his former love, Mercédès, in the 2002 film “The Count of Monte Cristo”. It is a cinematic orchestral ballad that serves as a tragic monologue, realizing that the vengeance he dedicated his life to is nothing but a hollow “phantom crown,” accompanied by the gray fear that he might cease to exist if he completely lets go of his hatred. [Lyrics] [Verse 1] The war is over, room is bare Only dust is in the air I thought the morning would be bright But it's just a paler night [Pre-Chorus] The anger kept me breathing on Now the heavy storm is gone [Chorus] This ashen win, a lonely game Nothing but an empty name I lived to see you fall apart Now I have a hollow heart Fading in the quiet dawn Wondering where my soul has gone [Short Instrumental Break] [Verse 2] Looking in the mirror now I see the monster on my brow I burned my life to bring you down Left with just a paper crown [Bridge] If I let the hatred go Will I melt into the snow? I've gone too far to turn around [Chorus] This ashen win, a lonely game Nothing but an empty name I lived to see you fall apart Now I have a hollow heart Fading in the quiet dawn Wondering where my soul has gone [Outro] Silent dawn... All the hate is gone... Fading to gray...
