King Of Nothing

In the year before we lost our empire

We were children on the march

We were told we had to serve our empire and die

In our wake we only left destruction

Sent their children to the graves

In the year before we lost our empire and died

The war was lost but we went on

Our king was dead and in the end nobody won

We were told to march to death and glory

We were told it's for our land

In the end our tribe was left with nothing and died

In the time when all our hearts were frozen

We were soldiers for the king

In our wake we left their castles burning and died

The war was lost but we went on

And when the harvest came we found our king was gone

The war was lost but we went on

And when we paid the price we found our king was gone

The war was lost but we fought on

The war was lost and in the end nobody won
