The delicate decades of decadence declined; My Kingdom of Snowy Falls chipped away. No forgotten fate for this fugitive; A polar punishment, shivered in irony. Stuck in a moment of weakness, Arrogance and stupidity faded together, Followed by limping embarrassment. My frostbitten forearm flared in pain; One trip and my pride drained away. I crawled up my frozen throne And lounged onto my frosty arms Crafted for this cold king; The frigid atmosphere revealed the chilling truth. Bitter betrayal buried under bonds of loyalty, And all of my servants have fled. My chipped crown fell to the floor; Cue the coup d'etat. The cruel blanket of death hovered over me. Shivering, squirming and stalling in my seat. Ensnared by the usurping serpents, I refused to abdicate my throne. I tumbled down in defeat. My arms broken and my pride shattered, I stumbled back up the arctic surface; My harbored hatred for the hailing hills grew As again and again I failed to reach the top.

King of the Hill
The delicate decades of decadence declined; My Kingdom of Snowy Falls chipped away. No forgotten fate for this fugitive; A polar punishment, shivered in irony. Stuck in a moment of weakness, Arrogance and stupidity faded together, Followed by limping embarrassment. My frostbitten forearm flared in pain; One trip and my pride drained away. I crawled up my frozen throne And lounged onto my frosty arms Crafted for this cold king; The frigid atmosphere revealed the chilling truth. Bitter betrayal buried under bonds of loyalty, And all of my servants have fled. My chipped crown fell to the floor; Cue the coup d'etat. The cruel blanket of death hovered over me. Shivering, squirming and stalling in my seat. Ensnared by the usurping serpents, I refused to abdicate my throne. I tumbled down in defeat. My arms broken and my pride shattered, I stumbled back up the arctic surface; My harbored hatred for the hailing hills grew As again and again I failed to reach the top.
