[Intro]
[Heroic Choir]
One flame remains
One heart defies
One queen descends
Where the smoke still rises

[Verse]
I tore the banners from the towers
Wrapped the wounded in their gold
I broke the locks on royal cellars
Gave the bread the court controlled
No priest could stop my orders
No lord could bar the stair
I found my crown was lighter
When I carried others there

[Pre-Chorus]
Let history call me fallen
Let Vael call me weak
A queen is not a statue
A queen must hear them speak

[Chorus]
I am the last royal flame
Burning through the shame
Not for throne and not for name
But for every soul that came
I am the last royal flame
Lighting up the rain
If the crown must turn to ash
Let it warm them through the pain

[Verse]
Kaelen held the northern crossing
With soldiers once my foes
Together we made passage
Where the river overflowed
The people saw no conquest
They saw hands and opened doors
And for the first time in the ruins
We were kingdoms nevermore

[Pre-Chorus]
The old law cracked like frozen glass
The new dawn had no king
And from the throats of starving crowds
I heard tomorrow sing

[Chorus]
I am the last royal flame
Burning through the shame
Not for throne and not for name
But for every soul that came
I am the last royal flame
Lighting up the rain
If the crown must turn to ash
Let it warm them through the pain

[Instrumental Break]
[Guitar Solo]
Fast as fire
Bright as steel
Drums like courage
Made real

[Bridge]
Let the palace fall behind me
Let the council curse my blood
I have seen the sacred answer
In the children pulled from mud
No more taxes paid to marble
No more hymns to empty walls
If I must be remembered
Let them say I heard their calls

[Breakdown]
[Heavy Choir]
Open the gates
Break every chain
Carry the lost
Out of the flame

[Build-up]
One flame remains
One heart defies
One queen descends
Where the future rises

[Final Chorus]
I am the last royal flame
Burning through the shame
Not for throne and not for name
But for every soul that came
I am the last royal flame
Lighting up the rain
If the crown must turn to ash
Let it warm them through the pain

[Outro]
[Orchestral Outro]
One flame remains
But not alone
The fire leaves
The empty throne
