Twisting the Knife Lyrics by Vanir

2023

In the streets of Stockholm bloodbath began
The executioner's axe cut down woman and man
The ground soaked as the highborn was slain
As the cries of the people who pleaded in vain
Let his power be shown
Let their punish be known
Let the streets run red
By the sins of the dead
Rex Christian Tyranis
His will shall be done
His judgment a swiftly force
Their blood shall now run
Streets stained in blood
Their necks were cut
Low and high born
Dragged across stone
Shackled and displayed
They were left in dismay
Let his power be shown
Let their punish be known
Let the streets run red
By the sins of the dead
Rex Christian Tyranis
His will shall be done
His judgment a swiftly force
Their blood shall now run
Bodies will pile
Blood in the gutter
Nobles and clerics die
Blood in the gutter
For their folly defy
Blood in the gutter
At the town's center the first is brought forth
Judged by the ruling court to meet the executioner's sword
Rex Christian Tyranis
His will shall be done
His judgment a swiftly force
Their blood shall now run
Rex Christian Tyranis
His will shall be done
His judgment a swiftly force
Their blood shall now run
Horrific acts of violence
Gruesome display of power
A coin for each head
Till all of them are dead
