King of Sorrow

[Fadein] [Verse 1] Crowned in ruin, wrapped in rust A throne of bones, a reign of dust Hollow voices call my name Echoes lost in time’s cruel flame [Chorus] I am the thorn, I am the blight Bearer of a cursed right King of sorrow, lord of none Bound until the end undone [Verse 2] [male guttural Vocals] Once they knelt, once they prayed Now their husks in darkness stay Flesh to ash, and hope to rot Still I rule, though time forgot [Bridge] Blades have dulled, yet wounds remain Bound in chains of fate’s cruel game If death should call, I would not flee For even dust remembers me [Chorus] I am the thorn, I am the blight Bearer of a cursed right King of sorrow, lord of none Bound until the end undone [Breakdown with groovy drums and chuggy guitars] (Blackened sky, hollow cries Bloodstained hands, empty eyes No gods remain, no dawn will rise Only thrones where sorrow lies) [Verse 3] Through the fog, past shattered spires I walk alone on roads of fire No savior comes, no light remains Only echoes whispering my name [Chorus] I am the thorn, I am the blight Bearer of a cursed right King of sorrow, lord of none Bound until the end undone [Outro] And when the stars all cease to burn And when the tides shall not return Still I stand, still I reign A king of dust, a crown of pain [Fadeout]
