The Unguided - King's Fall lyrics
[The Unguided - King's Fall lyrics]
A legacy, it isn't what we say
When we are here
It's what others (will) say about us
When we're gone and reunited
In the timeless void
I never even wanted this for myself
It's just something that came
With the oath we took
To the people that we swore to protect
In times of despair
No king rules forever
Their constant burden (Burden)
Even the sun cannot light up this dark day
The night strangles the rays away
(But) Your heroic tales I will pass on
Now when you are gone
You buried the dagger in the shoulder
That used to carry you through hell
Winning wars for you in the past
Never gave us anything
Nothing's forever
Even the sun cannot light up this dark day
The night strangles the rays away
(But) Your heroic tales I will pass on
Now when you're gone
And in his crown, no one would ever fit
Everyone would break beneath it
I watch your son's troubled eyes
As the last anthem dies
At the edge of souls he gave his life
To heal the death of the prince
The King is dead
The King is dead long live the King
The King is dead long live the King
The King is dead long live the King
Nothing is forever
The constant burden (Burden)
Even the sun cannot light up this dark day
The night strangles the rays away
(But) Your heroic tales I will pass on
Now when you're gone
But in his crown, no one would ever fit
Everyone would break beneath it
I watch your son's troubled eyes
As the last anthem dies
When we are here
It's what others (will) say about us
When we're gone and reunited
In the timeless void
I never even wanted this for myself
It's just something that came
With the oath we took
To the people that we swore to protect
In times of despair
No king rules forever
Their constant burden (Burden)
Even the sun cannot light up this dark day
The night strangles the rays away
(But) Your heroic tales I will pass on
Now when you are gone
You buried the dagger in the shoulder
That used to carry you through hell
Winning wars for you in the past
Never gave us anything
Nothing's forever
Even the sun cannot light up this dark day
The night strangles the rays away
(But) Your heroic tales I will pass on
Now when you're gone
And in his crown, no one would ever fit
Everyone would break beneath it
I watch your son's troubled eyes
As the last anthem dies
At the edge of souls he gave his life
To heal the death of the prince
The King is dead
The King is dead long live the King
The King is dead long live the King
The King is dead long live the King
Nothing is forever
The constant burden (Burden)
Even the sun cannot light up this dark day
The night strangles the rays away
(But) Your heroic tales I will pass on
Now when you're gone
But in his crown, no one would ever fit
Everyone would break beneath it
I watch your son's troubled eyes
As the last anthem dies
