歌词
[Verse 1]
We'd like to continue with something else from A Farewell to Kings
This brings Alex to the classical guitar
This is called A Farewell to Kings
[Verse 2]
When they turn the pages of history
When these days have passed long ago
Will they rid of us with sadness
For the seeds that we let grow
[Verse 3]
We turned our gaze from the castles in the distance
Eyes cast down on the path of least resistance
[Verse 4]
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
[Verse 5]
The hypocrites are slandering
The sacred halls of truth
Ancient nobles showering
Their bitterness on you
[Verse 6]
Can't we find the minds that made us strong?
Can't we learn to feel what's right and what's wrong?
What's wrong?
[Verse 7]
Cities full of hatred fear and lies
Withered hearts and cruel, tormented eyes
Scheming demons dressed in kingly guise
Beating down the multitudes and
Scoffing at the wise
[Verse 8]
Can't we raise our eyes and make a start?
Can't we find the minds to lead us
Closer to the heart?
