Killers & Kings

Dark lady read me the future
The ancient verse hidden away
I turn from the evergrey
Tarot cards keep us enraptured
Open mind become a sage
Let this unlock the cage
Ancient power
Darkest hour
Open your third eye and you'll see
(Killers & kings)
Inheritors of Earth
(Killers & kings)
From death there comes rebirth
And as an army we will sing
A diamond bears our ring
Killers & kings
Look to earth summon the master
Awake the human living inside
Ecclesiasticide
The hangman gives into temperence
The sun shines over the fool
High priestess spreads her rule
Death and rebirth
Decay and mirth
Open your third eye and you'll see
(Killers & kings)
Inheritors of earth
(Killers & kings)
From death there comes rebirth
And as an army we will sing
A diamond bears our ring
Killers & kings
A diamond bears our ring
Yeah
The king of pentacles is here
Strength and fortitude help to push away the fear
We stand atop the mountain with the hermit and the lamp
As the lovers in the knight of swords give in to the damned
What do the cards say?
The prophecy remains
The devil in the emperor could keep us locked in chains
And the death card doesn't mean you die
It means a change is coming that you simple can't deny
Reborn
Rebirth
From death comes rebirth
(Killers & kings)
Inheritors of earth
(Killers & kings)
From death there comes rebirth
And as an army we will sing
A diamond bears our ring
Killers & kings
(Killers & kings)
Inheritors of earth
(Killers & kings)
From death there comes rebirth
And as an army we will sing
A diamond bears our ring
Killers & kings
