The Emperor

[Verse 1]
Purple and gold around
Lilies and orchids bloom
For no one
No one

Cold as the pale moon
Still as a vacant tomb
Truth is, there's someone
Someone

Frozen to the bone
Silent on his throne
The emperor's turning to stone

Scepter and staff are gone
Forest and fields stretch on
Belonging to no one
No one

Dawn is a phantom sea
Gone, like his precious queen
Glowing for no one
No one

Frozen to the bone
Silent on his throne
Thе emperor's turning to someonе
No one expected (No one expected)
Way down, by the crowd he selected
Sepsis, past left deaf, dumb
Numb to the hurt

Frozen to the bone
Silent on his throne
Frozen to the bone
Silent on his throne
The emperor's turning to stone
