Lyrics
The King Of Pain
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.
Don't ever look to the sun
He will burn your eyes with the fire of his light
And never pray in the house of eternal sight
Where the spirit goes to die
So now we stand up and again we cry for the passion of his name
It's where we love, where we hate
It's the price we pay when our love is out of time
Where is the spark that won't fade away?
And where is the queen to my king of pain?
Say my name, never leave your side, I will be your shadow in the night
Love and fear cannot win the fight
Even with the an army behind your life
So don't walk away, I'll keep you safe, forget promises that we made
Say my name, never leave your side, I will be your shadow here tonight
When we find what we need from these broken hearts
And what was missing from the start
Speak the words of a God that refuse to lie
To a believer then won't try
I want to give up as my vision fades
I'm left alone and now I'm blind
Don't let me go to the desert that I left behind
With the ashes of a fate that died
Where is the spark that won't fade away?
And where is the queen to my king of pain?
Say my name, never leave your side, I will be your shadow in the night
Love and fear cannot win the fight
Even with the an army behind your life
So don't walk away, I'll keep you safe, forget promises that we made
Say my name, never leave your side, I will be your shadow here tonight
I cannot see what's become of life
It's all just passing by
I cannot see what's become of life
It's all just passing by, yeah
Say my name, never leave your side, I will be your shadow in the night
Love and fear cannot win the fight
Even with the an army behind your life
So don't walk away, I'll keep you safe, forget promises that we made
Say my name, never leave your side, I will be your shadow here tonight
