A Farewell To Kings

When they turn the pages of history

When these days have passed long ago

Will they read of us with sadness

For the seeds that we let grow

We turned our gaze

From the castles in the distance

Eyes cast down

On the path of least resistance



	Cities full of hatred

	Fear and lies

	Withered hearts

   And cruel tormented eyes

   Scheming demons

   Dressed in kingly guise

	 Beating down the multitude

   And scoffing at the wise



The hypocrites are slandering

The sacred halls of Truth

Ancient nobles showering

Their bitterness on youth

Can't we find

The minds that made us stong

Can't we learn

To feel what's right and wrong



	Cities full of hatred

	Fear and lies

	Withered hearts

   And cruel, tormented eyes

   Scheming demons

	Dressed in kingly guise

   Beating down the multitude

   And scoffing at the wise

   Can't we raise our eyes

   And make a start

	Can't we find the minds

   To lead us closer to the Heart
