Kingdom of Shadows

**Verse 1:** Walking through the streets where time hides The city whispers secrets in the moonlight And dreams are exchanged for empty promises As the future dissolves into thin air **Pre-Chorus 1:** Night falls and hope dissolves In mirages that dance around And the desire for power grows without control Like a flame that never goes out, a fervor **Chorus 1:** Because everyone wants to be the kings of tomorrow But no one sees that the throne is made of sand Dreams are lost, hopes are gone And the truth is that power is a mirage Everyone wants to reign in the darkness of the heart --- **Verse 2:** In the corridors where the echoes whisper promises And each step is a weight on the soul Smiles are masks, truths are illusions And the path to the top is an eternal calm **Pre-Chorus 2:** When the moon hides and fear appears Every choice is an endless maze The desire to control is a shadow that grows While the soul gets lost in the vortex of yes **Chorus 2:** Because everyone wants to be the kings of tomorrow But no one sees that the throne is made of sand Dreams are lost, hopes are gone And the truth is that power is a mirage Everyone wants to reign in the darkness of the heart --- **Bridge 1:** Freedom is in the choice we don't make In the silence of the truth we never speak Sometimes, the way is to let go of the shackles And find peace in what we don't seek **Instrumental Solo** --- **Verse 3:** The stars are witnesses of our path Each star, a wish, a lost hope The brightness of the eyes reveals the hidden sadness As we search for a meaning in life **Pre-Chorus 3:** When the sun rises and the truth is revealed Each mistake is a lesson we cannot deny The desire for power is a shadow that haunts But freedom is a light we can reach **Chorus 3:** Because everyone wants to be the kings of tomorrow But no one sees that the throne is made of sand Dreams are lost, hopes are gone And the truth is that power is a mirage Everyone wants to reign in the darkness of the heart --- **Bridge 2:** Sometimes, the way is to let go Finding the truth in what is omitted Power is not a throne, it is a weight to carry And freedom is what we learn to love **Chorus End:** Because everyone wants to be the kings of tomorrow But no one sees that the throne is made of sand Dreams are lost, hopes are gone And the truth is that power is a mirage Everyone wants to reign in the darkness of the heart **Exit:** In the end, in the end, who really rules? In the shadow of illusion, everyone finds themselves In the search for something that is never enough Everyone wants to reign, but the truth is a distant light ---
