A Farewell to Kings

When they turn the pages of history

When these days have passed long ago

Will they read of us with sadness

For the seeds that we let grow

We turned our gaze from the castles in the distance

Eyes cast down on the path of least resistance

Cities full of hatred, fear and lies

Withered hearts and cruel tormented eyes

Scheming demons dressed in kingly guise

Beating down the multitude and scoffing at the wise

The hypocrites are slandering the sacred halls of truth

Ancient nobles showering their bitterness on youth

Can't we find the minds that made us strong

Ohh, can't we learn to feel what's right and what's wrong

What's wrong?

Cities full of hatred, fear and lies

Withered hearts and cruel tormented eyes

Scheming demons dressed in kingly guise

Beating down the multitude and scoffing at the wise

Ohh, can't we raise our eyes and make a start

Can't we find the minds to lead us closer to the heart
