Gonna wait until the album is out to theory chat about the themes too much but the description in the record label website mentions cat feeling disoriented about her trajectory and having “finished her quest”

The lich very much has imagery of death and suicide, with lichs often being immortal undead sorcerers who’s souls are tied to other objects. The “lich queen” SD refers to is herself, reinventing her trajectory after the death of her ambition and objective.
Down in flames is at least partially about self destructive behavior and a commitment to getting better, trophy is about destructive ambition, and cnba is about perception by society and the weight of just living. The lich may be cat shedding these destructive habits and burdens to become herself
