05.The fall of Romeo
[Verse 1] The sun has died upon Verona’s stone And left me standing in the dark, alone A shroud of scarlet paints the cobblestone The jester's laugh is swallowed by a moan You drew your blade beneath a poisoned sky And watched a brighter star eclipse and die My hands are shaking, dripping with the red The lover’s heart inside my chest is dead. [Pre-Chorus] Oh, Prince of Cats, you prowl the midnight street But now the hounds of hell are at your feet The velvet mask of peace is torn apart I forge a dagger from my broken heart. [Chorus] By my blood I demand satisfaction! For the blood you've spilled is my own! Considered you a brother, but not no more! I cast your soul to eternal damnation, For causing my kin such foul aggravation! [Verse 2] The feline grace, the sneer upon your lip I’ll wipe it off with every slash and rip No Juliet can stay my vengeful hand The hourglass is empty of its sand You thought me weak, a coward drunk on love But crows have come to feast upon the dove The gothic spire watches as we clash A symphony of steel, the thunder's crash. [Pre-Chorus] Oh, Prince of Cats, you prowl the midnight street But now the hounds of hell are at your feet The velvet mask of peace is torn apart I forge a dagger from my broken heart. [Chorus] By my blood I demand satisfaction! For the blood you've spilled is my own! Considered you a brother, but not no more! I cast your soul to eternal damnation, For causing my kin such foul aggravation! [Bridge] [Choir chanting] Sanguis! Vindicta! Mortis! No mercy in the shadow of the sword No prayers will reach your silent, absent Lord You struck down kin, now taste the bitter sting I am the reaper! I am the venom king! Fall to your knees, Tybalt, look in my eyes And see the hellfire where your future dies! [Guitar & Heavy Organ Solo] [Outro] Eternal damnation... Such foul aggravation... By my blood. By my blood.
