Winter Sovereign

Don't say my name

Unless you're ready to hear it back

They wanted a monster

So I became one

I walk into the room And every voice goes quiet

No throne beneath my feet Still,

somehow, they all bow to it

I never needed promises Never needed chains You thought you knew my

weakness You only learned my name

Look into my eyes Tell me what you see

A girl you can control?

Or the thing you shouldn't wake in me?

I don't need your fear

I wear it like a crown

You can build your walls I'll burn them to the ground I

don't chase

I don't beg I don't break I collect

Every scar made me colder

Every loss made me stronger If you think you can own me

Come closer Come closer

I learned to hide my heart

Behind a face of stone

I learned that trust is dangerous When you're better off alone

And when these wings unfold Don't mistake them for a warning They're

not here to save you

They're here to remind you who's falling

Look into my eyes

Don't look away

You wanted something fearless Now you're standing in its way

You think the silence means I'm empty

You think the calm means I'm afraid

No.

I'm just deciding

How much of you

I'm willing to leave standing

One step Two steps

Hear the whole room breathe

Three steps Four steps

Now get down on your knees You wanted power

You wanted control

You wanted the monster

Now you know

I don't need your fear I wear it like a crown You

can build your walls I'll burn them to the ground

I don't chase I don't beg I don't break I collect Every

scar made me colder Every loss made me stronger You thought you

could own me You should've known better

Come closer

Come closer

You wanted a monster You made me a queen

Now look at me

And tell me

What exactly Do you think

You can take from me?

Don't say my name Unless you're ready

To meet the reason They fear it.
