King of Kings

Look on my works
Ye mighty and despair
Let no man question
The glory that stood here

Nations fell
Once before my hand
Thousands bowed
Once to my command

Now all that's left
To tell the tale
Is broken ruins in the sand
Time's not long
The end will come

Burned away!
In new day's sun
Just hope some fraction carries on
In one more tale
In one more song
Time is the wound we cannot heal
Despite every single breath we steal
Even kings of kings
Must kneel

Look on my works
Ye mighty and despair
Just words in stone
And desert stretching bare

From bones of ancient kingdoms past
To seconds slipping through your grasp
They fade the same with every day
So live each moment like your last

The stone erodes
The skin decays
And only the memory remains

Burned away!
In new day's sun
Just hope some fraction carries on
In one more tale
In one more song
Time is the wound we cannot heal
Despite every single breath we steal
Even kings of kings
Must kneel

Burned away!
In new day's sun
Just hope some fraction carries on
In one more tale
In one more song
Time is the wound we cannot heal
Despite every single breath we steal
Even kings of kings
Must kneel
Even kings of kings
Must kneel
