the old king saw him young and now he saw no child what he bore with all his love gave him a fruit rotten and wild in songs of him, in lores of them he heard not a sound and now when he could see more clear, He saw only the dark all around.
and where is my crown, the old king asked- Should I bow my head so low ? You stand there with one mocking smile, What truth I don't know ? in a sky so blue, in a sky so dark we stand strong behind our walls and if you dare to bleed my love You'll taste the sharp of my claws. not on my head, not on my throne but them eyes know no lies and in here with all that is mine you dare to look in my eyes ?
and so he whispered and so he spoke, of the gods young and old- the little man with red in his eyes- and the words so cold
and so he screamed and so he spoke of the lores young and old the little man with red in his eyes- and a sorrow to behold.
so the king won't see the stars those change, in the glow of his throne ? them colours do change, oh my lord but every moment a new morrow is born what is mine and what is yours that is not for us to weep and when you're gone, oh my king what you leave will be mine to keep beyond the pines I see what we can claim, Is that not how the world goes by ? In the stones when they engrave our names, they would sing not about the moment we died.
If you seek the glory you abide, hear- the gods won't hear your call so what if you have age by your side, you haven't seen the scattered dolls and where is your kingdom ? to rule them all, is that how you will cause them stars to fall ? you are mine and i am your king you know nothing what lies beyond those walls In a sky so blue, in a sky so dark the stars have a place to hide and what will you do when you have them claws- Open your heart far and wide ?
and so he cursed and so he wrote every tear down on a page and so he purged and so he wrote Every scar from the rage
and so he cursed and so he wrote every drop on the page and so he purged and so he wrote behind the curtains of the stage
I will find my own fate, said the little man my father knows nothing of the ills I've seen we're mocked all about from beyond the walls I've always wanted what we must have once been In the name of the gods I must seek the justice my blood will seep in the ground and mark my claim I will uproot the graves and make the dead speak for they knows about the people beyond the walls, small and strange
