Lyrics
The Philosopher 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.
Filth reigns in the heart of the wicked
Degradation of the flesh
You warned us all
Thy feeble shall fall
Crippled hearts
Disorder in the four corners
Ruptured sanity
Praised insanity
Insanity
Philosopher
King of the stoic
Messenger of light
Messenger of the willing
Everything in it, everything about it

All the motions guided by the gods I create!
Philosopher King
Drown me in the waters
Cleanse me from this vile world
The gods favor me
Let the games begin
The Sun burns my eyes
Bring the hands of death
Pull me in the somber
Descend upon me
Drown me in the waters
Cleanse me from this vile world
The gods favor me
Let the games begin
Philosopher
King of the stoic
Messenger of light
Messenger of the willing
Everything in it, everything about it
All the motions guided by the gods I create!
Philosopher King
What doesn't transmit light
Creates its own darkness
I am Marcus Aurelius
The Philosopher King
