Tesseract

[Verse]
Statues cracked wings of stone
Victory frozen on her throne
Gold turns to dust dust to air
Does she even see us down here

[Prechorus]
Crowns in her hands hands in the fire
Burning like ash ash of desire

[Chorus]
Victoria where do you hide
Under the weight of the endless tide
Victoria do you even care
Your shadow’s heavy but you're not there

[Verse 2]
Battle cries they echo they fade
Her chariot rusts in the endless parade
Blood on the marble stains the past
Glory a ghost that will never last

[Prechorus]
Winds of the ages they scream and they howl
Her silence louder than the victor’s growl

[Chorus]
Victoria where do you hide
Under the weight of the endless tide
Victoria do you even care
Your shadow’s heavy but you're not there

Victoria's Shadow

“Decay” is a visceral plunge into the collapse of trust, hope, and self-control. Written from the depths of anguish, the track embodies the slow erosion of faith in humanity and the inner fire that burns everything down to ash. Its lyrics spiral between rage, despair, and the aching weight of betrayal, painting a raw portrait of a mind consumed by its own shadows.

With heavy, atmospheric undertones and a grunge-infused metal edge, “Decay” captures the feeling of being set ablaze from the inside out, thoughts rusting, trust shattered, and no end in sight. Both haunting and cathartic, the song stands as an anthem for anyone who’s felt their soul corrode under the weight of lies, pain, and disillusionment.

At its core, “Decay” is more than destruction, it’s the moment of truth when everything false crumbles, leaving only the raw essence of survival behind.
