[Verse 1] When the king returns, so does the corruption Greed on his lips, and the people’s destruction Priests at his side with their hollow demands One voice stands alone, the fire in his hands [Chorus] Break my body, take my breath Light the fire, promise death Bury me alive, up to my neck But my words stand tall, they outlast your threat [Verse 2] You threaten with prisons, with chains and with flame But nothing you hold can extinguish my claim You sit on your thrones, but they’re built out of lies Your crowns turn to ash, and your kingdom will die [Chorus] Break my body, take my breath Light the fire, promise death Bury me alive, up to my neck But my words stand tall, they outlast your threat [Bridge] You can kill me, But my words will stand As a testimony against you! [Chorus] Break my body, take my breath Light the fire, promise death Bury me alive, up to my neck But my words stand tall, they outlast your threat
