[Intro – low, dirty guitar] Three days… Then— [RIFF KICKS IN HARD] [Verse 1] Stone locked tight but it couldn’t hold Death tried to claim what it never owned Ground shook hard—something broke loose Light came in—cut right through No more silence—no more grave What they buried wouldn’t stay [Pre-Chorus – stripped] The grave— lost its hold— [BREAK] [Chorus – HIT HARD] THE KING RETURNS STONE ROLLED BACK DEATH TOOK A SWING— BUT IT COULDN’T LAST THE KING RETURNS LOOK AND SEE THE GRAVE IS EMPTY HE HOLDS THE KEYS [Verse 2] Angel stood—fire in white Guards dropped dead at the sight Nothing left where He was laid Just the mark of what He made Truth hit hard—cut through stone Death just lost what it owned [Pre-Chorus] No chain— could hold Him— [BREAK] [Chorus] THE KING RETURNS STONE ROLLED BACK DEATH TOOK A SWING— BUT IT COULDN’T LAST THE KING RETURNS LOOK AND SEE THE GRAVE IS EMPTY HE HOLDS THE KEYS [Bridge – dirty breakdown] No more grave No more hold No more lie No more control [Build – riff driven] He walked out— On His own— [Final Chorus – biggest but still raw] THE KING RETURNS NOW YOU KNOW DEATH GOT BURIED THREE DAYS AGO THE KING RETURNS STAND AND SEE JESUS CHRIST— IN VICTORY [Outro – riff fades] The grave is empty… He’s alive.
