King’s Fall

[Verse 1]
A legacy, it isn't what we say
When we are here
It's what others (will) say about us
When we're gone and reunited
In the timeless void
I never even wanted this for myself
It's just something that came
With the oath we took
To the people that we swore to protect
In times of despair

[Pre-Chorus]
No king rules forever
Their constant burden (Burden)

[Chorus]
Even the sun cannot light up this dark day
The night strangles the rays away
(But) Your heroic tales I will pass on
Now when you are gone

[Verse 2]
You buried the dagger in the shoulder
That used to carry you through hell
Winning wars for you in the past
Never gave us anything

[Pre-Chorus]
Nothing's forever

[Chorus]
Even the sun cannot light up this dark day
The night strangles the rays away
(But) Your heroic tales I will pass on
Now when you're gone
And in his crown, no one would ever fit
Everyone would break beneath it
I watch your son's troubled eyes
As the last anthem dies

[Bridge 1]
At the edge of souls
He gave his life
To heal the death of the prince
The King is dead

[Bridge 2]
The King is dead
Long live the King
The King is dead
Long live the King
The King is dead
Long live the King

[Pre-Chorus]
Nothing is forever
The constant burden (Burden)

[Chorus]
Even the sun cannot light up this dark day
The night strangles the rays away
(But) Your heroic tales I will pass on
Now when you're gone
But in his crown, no one would ever fit
Everyone would break beneath it
I watch your son's troubled eyes
As the last anthem dies
