Death of a King Lyrics
When the dawn is bright and new
And the day is full of hope
It's easy to continue your journey
Like a king on his royal wayYou will stand there amidst silence
In the void of endless winter
On the ice of an unknown lake
In the heart of lonelinessThere you will meet yourself
There you'll weigh your crown
On the ice of the lake of death
On the mirror of timeThere you will meet yourself
There you'll weigh your crown
On the ice of the lake of death
On the shiny mirror of timeWhen the days are getting colder
And the winds clash against each other
When light is getting dimmer
And darkness shrouds the roadsYou will drift into strange byways
Lost in foreign lands
Stranded on frigid shores
On a godless desolate plainThere you will meet yourself
There you'll weigh your crown
On the ice of the lake of death
On the mirror of timeIt's there where your endeavour ends
On the face of a forlorn lake
Under weight of a timeless sky
It is there where you shall dieThere you will meet yourself
There you'll weigh your crown
On the ice of the lake of death
On the mirror of timeThere you will meet yourself
There you'll weigh your crown
On the ice of the lake of death
On the shiny mirror of timeDeath of the king
