Lyrics
Coward King
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.
Breathless, you reach for your crown
Beyond burns everything you've ever known
Just a poor man is all that's left
A scorched portrait is your bequest
Your tormented soul the demons shall keep
Onto parchment are composed your guilt and greed
The dust of decades underneath your feet
Your spirit still yearns, still seek
You had everything and you've lost it all
The highest flight is the deepest fall
Can't you hear the Darkness calls?
The tide that rises is the tide that falls
Coward King, your fortress walls have failed
Coward King, your whine will be to no avail
Coward King, the Kingdom stands ablaze
Your numbered days have turned blue to grey
Coward King, your fortress walls have failed
Coward King, your whine will be to no avail
Coward King, can't you hear the Darkness calls?
The tide that rises is the tide that falls
The tide that rises is the tide that falls
Breathless, you reach for your crown
Beyond burns everything you've ever known
Just a poor man is all that's left
A scorched portrait is your bequest
You had everything
You had everything
Can't you hear the Darkness calls?
You had everything and you've lost it all
The highest flight is the deepest fall
Can't you hear the Darkness calls?
You had everything and you've lost it all
The highest flight is the deepest fall
Can't you hear the Darkness calls?
Can't you hear the Darkness calls?
