Long Live the King Lyrics by Mekaloton

Third Rail

0

Two score, we've been set adrift
\nTwo more since the bloody stiff was crowned
\nThick skin, never turning tack
\nWord's in that it's coming back around
\n(But I won't sit back anymore)
\n(No, I won't sit back anymore)
\n
\nDisplaced by the devilkin
\nCold waste, where they left us in between
\nAll wrong, how they made this world
\nHow long will they stay impearled and clean?
\n('Cause I can't hold back anymore)
\n(No, I can't hold back anymore)
\n
\nOne shot for every one of us in the dirt
\nRun hotter 'cause the covetous never learn
\nI'll let the flame grow higher, higher
\nI'll set the world on fire, torch the skies and I'll let 'em burn
\n
\nCold bronze laid upon a throne
\nOld bonds paid in bullets, bone, and blood
\nTake heart in the beating thrum
\nTake part, raising fire from the flood
\n('Cause I won't sit back anymore)
\n(No, I won't sit back anymore)
\n
\nNo gold, just the falling sun
\nBell toll ringing buried under rust
\nAll thrashed and inferno-brushed
\nShe said, "Ashes to ashes, dust to dust"
\n(So I can't hold back anymore)
\n(No, I can't hold back anymore)
\n
\n(No, I can't hold back anymore)
\nOne shot for every one of us in the dirt
\nRun hotter 'cause the covetous never learn
\nI'll let the flame grow higher, higher
\nI'll set the world on fire, torch the skies and I'll let 'em burn\n\n
