tykim - to the king lyrics
[verse 1]
oh, ashes to ashes
your dust into dust
telling yourself you do what you must
oh, anything to keep your kingdom’s trust
monarch eternal, as we slowly rust
how much is too much
oh, just what is the cost
to keep up this faded and cursed omelas?
we lived, and we died, so that you could pause time
we hope you enjoyed your last subject’s applause
[pre+chorus]
one, two, three
you need sacrifice
to seal your d+mned demons away
cause pain and death, it’s fine
as long as this kingdom’s mine
live to see just one more day
please, just one more try
i’ve got it this time
cause there’s no cost too great
[chorus]
think of the future
think of the past
do you remember?
do you regret?
think of your children
think of your men
someday you’ll have to pay up your debt
try to forget us
we dare you to try
cause we will remind you, this isn’t goodbye
look to the future
look to the past
do you remember, your graveyard?
[verse 2]
silently, slowly
we bring keep up the fight
given some time, we just might set things right
we try, and we try to climb up to the light
with corpses beneath you
do you sleep at night?
way up above lies your chosen pure knight
the only one spared was the one with no mind
for you, for your heart, for your love
did they lie?
pretend all is fine as their mind rots inside
[pre+chorus]
one, two, three
you need sacrifice
to keep your d+mned demons away
cause pain and death, it’s fine
as long as this kingdom’s mine
live to see just one more day
please, just one more try
i’ve got it this time
cause there’s no cost too great
[chorus]
think of the future
think of the past
do you remember?
do you regret?
think of your children
think of your men
someday you’ll have to pay up your debt
try to forget us
we dare you to try
cause we will remind you, this isn’t goodbye
think of the future
think of the past
do you remember, your graveyard?
[outro]
our voices will cry out again!
