Lyrics
Shadow 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.
The world we live in is silent lucid liquid change
The king appears well afraid aware in all his rage
He seeks to tell in unseen terror about poer life and lust
The rising power of Baphomet is all that he can trust ah
Hell on earth sadistic birth hell on earth
God bless all who sail in her this ship he built with fright
Pleasant in his infamy it sails into the night ah
Hell on earth sadistic birth hell on earth
Reasoning decay decides to plague the nurtured home
Redesign Colombus Isle where only kings will roam
The spirit lies in all we see and all that we can touch
He found the place where gods reside destroyed into the ancient dust ah
Hell on earth sadistic birth hell on earth
God bless all who sail in her this ship he built with fright
Pleasant in his infamy with cold and blistered sight ah
Hell on earth sadistic birth hell on earth hell on earth
The afterlife that mark the moons of distant silent stars
So on the quest the king is served golden in his light
Hell on earth sadistic birth hell on earth
Revealing yellowed manuscript in the shadow of the king
Written here in pages old the secrets of this thing
Imagination hanging by the lucid threads he claims
Where all around damnations lie they're locked inside his fevered brain
Hell on earth sadistic birth hell on earth
God bless all who sail in her this ship he built with fright
Pleasant in his infamy it sails into the night ah
Hell on earth sadistic birth hell on earth hell on earth
