Three Days
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.
[Nafaryus]
The admiration
The applause and the cheers
I am impressed
You've brought us all to tears
To think I didn't notice
The way you looked at her
Now step down from your throne
And let me bring you back to earth
Need I remind you?
I am the ruler here
Don't overlook that fact
Swearing allegiance
To anyone but me
No, I won't put up with that
Hide and protect him
Send him away
I'll never play this game
Stand by your savior
One thing remains
I'll find him just the same
[Imperial Guards]
Brace yourself
Bow down to Nafaryus
Pray for help
Kneel before Nafaryus
[Nafaryus]
He'll surrender on his own
If not, there'll be hell to pay
I'll tear down this city stone by stone
You only have three days
Send home the rebels
Call off the fight
In no unceartain terms
Should you refuse me
Fear for your lives
Ravenskill shall burn
[Imperial Guards]
Brace yourself
Bow down to Nafaryus
Pray for help
Kneel before Nefaryus
[Narrator]
With this frightening decree
Nafaryus departs
They're left to weigh the gravity
Of his threatening remarks
Judgement day will soon arrive
In only three days time
Will Gabriel get out of this alive?
This remains the question on their minds
