Judicator - The Queen of All Cities lyrics
[Judicator - The Queen of All Cities lyrics]
The Kingdom! The savior will save us
The Kingdom! The savior will
Be our guiding light for weeks now
It seems like we've traveled through limbo
And at last we see her shine, Constantinople!
Sinners and the saintly will kneel!
Sinners and the saintly will halt for Alexios
The saints reign from heaven the saints!
Swear him oaths of fealty and
He’ll open up the way
Cresting, the waves of crusaders
Spilling down from off the hill
Resting, the Queen of all Cities
Swear Alexios your word and then
Be on your way
Expanses we traversed, starvation
The desert
The hunger it drove us to our breaking point
The horses were cut and, little by little
The poor things were drained until one
Day they collapsed to the ground
Sinners and the saintly will march!
Sinners and the saintly will go
Marching to their fate
The saints reign from heaven the saints!
Spirit and the body unite when
Pushed to the edge
Left behind Constantinople
We swore to return what was theirs
Blessed be the Queen of all Cities
For all the lands and people lost
Lost to Seljuk Turks
Far off in the distance, I see Nicaea
Far off in the distance
Perhaps we'll find relief
Fortress in shrouds shimmers on the lake
Head in the clouds coming down the hill
Long did I seek for a path to salvation
Never could I wash off the
Scales from my poor eyes
Long did I struggle to free
Myself from my chains
Never could I break off the bindings
Of my guilt and shame
Sinners and the saintly will fall
Sinners and the saintly are equals
In the great abyss
The saints reign from heaven the saints!
When I take my last breath
I hope I can laugh and smile
But how can I live with this burden?
How can I ease my heart before I die?
Grace to the ones we have plundered
I will never sleep the same
Grant me healing rain
Rain now i will never be alone
Weeping, trembling at the throne Golden
Eyes stare back at me
The Kingdom! The savior will
Be our guiding light for weeks now
It seems like we've traveled through limbo
And at last we see her shine, Constantinople!
Sinners and the saintly will kneel!
Sinners and the saintly will halt for Alexios
The saints reign from heaven the saints!
Swear him oaths of fealty and
He’ll open up the way
Cresting, the waves of crusaders
Spilling down from off the hill
Resting, the Queen of all Cities
Swear Alexios your word and then
Be on your way
Expanses we traversed, starvation
The desert
The hunger it drove us to our breaking point
The horses were cut and, little by little
The poor things were drained until one
Day they collapsed to the ground
Sinners and the saintly will march!
Sinners and the saintly will go
Marching to their fate
The saints reign from heaven the saints!
Spirit and the body unite when
Pushed to the edge
Left behind Constantinople
We swore to return what was theirs
Blessed be the Queen of all Cities
For all the lands and people lost
Lost to Seljuk Turks
Far off in the distance, I see Nicaea
Far off in the distance
Perhaps we'll find relief
Fortress in shrouds shimmers on the lake
Head in the clouds coming down the hill
Long did I seek for a path to salvation
Never could I wash off the

Long did I struggle to free

Never could I break off the bindings
