cormorant (metal) - uneasy lies the head lyrics

Loading...

liberte
egalite
fraternite
queeles belles idees

la tyrannie du peuple

he once fed the scaffold
on revolution square
but now the crowds cackle
at his skull shaved bare
at his shirt torn and bl–dy
from the bullet in his jaw
at his hands worn and muddy
from years burying the law

the reign of terror
will fade into lore
with the king of errors
head on the floor
uneasy lies the head
that wears the crown

they called him “incorruptible”
the prince of anarchy
but all men grow tryannical
at the reins of liberty
the guillotine is power
it’s steel depicts rage
blood rains down in showers
when democracy’s a cage

the reign of tower
will fade into lore
with the king of errors
head on the floor
uneasy lies the head
that wears the crown

he tries to speak his final words
but his mouth drips off its hinge
the flesh, ravaged by the birds
makes even soldiers cringe
on a plank his body’s laid
the wood dampened by his fear
the lever’s pulled, a falling blade
and all the people cheered
