The King Lyrics by Passing Ravens

Moon Obsessions Vol. 2

2017

I can hear the trumpet ring, now the king is coming in
An endless carpet at his feet, it is red ‘cause of the blood spilled, yeah
He sits down so shamelessly on a big, golden throne
A thousand deaths at his command, with one lift of a hand
I hope it won't get hard
You know the reason why
But I'm afraid the blood... it's gonna be mine!
No one is here to complain, all the orders, you must accept
For if you dare to say a word, your throat will be cut
Food and shelter can’t be found on the sick, dry land
I watch a million of empty eyes begging not to die
But who is here to blame?
The people or the sta?
Well I'm quite sure, that I... I already know
I can feel the iron now that the war is at my door
I promise not to run, and I will unsheathe my gun
‘Cause I can hear the trumpet sing, now the king is on his way
He left with fear, he left with death, he left for good and he ain’t never coming back
I hope it won't get even harder
You know the reason why
And I'm afraid, that I... I already know
