imminent reign - the merchant of shame lyrics

Loading...

verse 1
prometheus wrought beauty on the earth
a paradise of forest, sea, and stone
producing countless wonders with his hands
such marvels would he make when left alone

rumors of earth’s grandeur reached the gods
who arrived with the king in countless hordes
the king built his palace in the mountains
and praised the maker with his lofty words
verse 2
prometheus attended their festivities
careful to include them in his light
the gods adored his splendour in the day
while their envy turned to malice in the night

one day a herald came to call him
a summons to appear before the king
they commanded him to don the mask of darkness
and he shuddered at the thought of such a thing

chorus
beware the honeyed words of the merchant of shame
whose malice hides behind a n0ble deed
never will his gluttony be satisfied
for the shaming merchant always needs to feed

verse 3
at first the lord rejected their appeal
and rightly called their punishment unjust
but gorthang cast a spell of twisted words
convincing all that wear the mask he must

so prometheus donned the horrid shroud
his bones ached with crippling guilt and shame
and while gorthang ruled from the shadows
distorted rumors cursed the maker’s name
chorus
beware the honeyed words of the merchant of shame
whose malice hides behind a n0ble deed
never will his gluttony be satisfied
for the shaming merchant always needs to feed
