Dead Kings Rise Lyrics by Misfits

American Psycho

1997

[Verse]
Bound by battle scars
When the savages reigned
The lord of war
From his right hand man betrayed
Beneath the battle field
His murdered corpse they hide
Oh, curse from Hell
Avenge my death
Avenge the lies
[Chorus]
Flesh they stole
But the soul is not begotten
Through the gates of Hell
I'll seize my throne
[Verse]
Bound by battle scars
When the savages reigned
The lord of war
From his right hand man betrayed
Beneath the battle field
His murdered corpse they hide
Oh, curse from Hell
Avenge my death
Avenge the lies
[Chorus]
Flesh they stole
But the soul is not begotten
Through the gates of Hell
I'll seize my throne
[Post-Chorus]
Feel my sword
Though the flesh be dead and rotten
Dead kings rise for vengeance owed
[Chorus]
Flesh they stole
But the soul is not begotten
Through the gates of Hell
I'll seize my throne
[Post-Chorus]
Feel my sword
Though the flesh be dead and rotten
Dead kings rise for vengeance owed
