Lyrics
The Empire Of Albatross
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
In hundreds they come, richly clad
Ladies and their noblemen
Men of honour, men of class
In throngs they do attend
Gaily they tread down
To a hall as bright as day
And as it approaches midnight
Their new king makes his way
In admiration they gaze
Awestruck and amazed
Is he the one that they seek?
He takes the stand and speaks
'The terror that roamed the land
The accursed albatross
Was killed at my request
All hope is not lost'
(Whispers- but what're those voices
We hear, are they only in our head?)
From the death of the old king
A new order we shall bring
An end to the holocaust
The empire of albatross
'Tonight the past dies
A new empire will rise
At the stroke of midnight
Witness my new delight
Revealing my symbol
An unveiling I've planned
A giant stone albatross
Will rule forever this land'
(Whispers- but what're those voices
We hear, are they from the dead?)
From the death of the old king
A new order we shall bring
An end to the holocaust
The empire of albatross
As the clock struck twelve
The king pulled back the veil
The guests looked in glee
And as one began to wail
For a masterpiece they saw
An albatross stood tall
But then it cracked like glass
Little by little it began to fall
Gasps & screams, and shouts were heard
There stood man-bird with wings unfurled
The killer of kings, the ruler of bird,
At his cry, the birds did fly
And yes, they pecked...he watched all die
The emperor hex, he groaned and cried
The empire of albatross crumbled that day!
The albatross empire, crumbled that day!
