“Cynical Empire“ available at ► Stay in touch ► Website: Merchandise: Instagram: Facebook: ANTITYPE’s new song “Cynical Empire” explores themes of illusion, despair and the struggle to maintain a facade in this dystopian world. The song’s haunting lyrics and emotive vocals paint a vivid picture of being trapped in a cycle of pretending and hiding the true self. “Cynical Empire” offers a raw and honest portrayal of the internal battles that many face in a society that often values appearances over authenticity. DOP, Direction, Editing & Postproduction: Peter Leukhardt / Special make-up: Nici Podlech / Mix and Master by Christoph Wieczorek / Supported by Initiative Musik gGmbH with project funds from the Federal Government Commissioner for Culture and Media. ------------------------ Cynical Empire I’m the king Masquerade To hide away My shadow and my ghost But through the lens Of black despair I’m putting on a royal show Creating fiction While my soul slowly dies Anticipating dead wind We’re building hope on lies Tired of pretending I rule an empty world I rule an empty world I’m the king Of my cynical empire My illusions never fail I’m my king Of this cynical empire Smoke and mirrors, hollow crowns A dystopian abyss I’m the king I’m the king Bound by beliefs Set so high I’m barely getting by Forcing smiles I breathe to pretend That I am still alive Creating fiction While my soul almost dies Anticipating dead wind We kill hope with words like knives Tired of pretending I rule an empty world I’m the king Of my cynical empire My illusions never fail I’m my king Of this cynical empire Smoke and mirrors, hollow crowns A dystopian abyss I’m the king I’m the king I was made of fragile lies But now I’m stepping out of my shadow No more living in disguise It’s time to cut the line And finally resign I was king Of my cynical empire My illusions finally failed I was king Of this cynical empire All smoke and mirrors, hollow crowns A dystopian abyss I was king I was king
