Versailles

Prison of flesh

Repulsion and beauty in one

Looming and slithering

My fears

My fears have materialized

From the dirt I will reign

To be remembered in a palace of kings

Slithering through the sands of time

From the dirt, I will reign

Will they remember me?

Omission

My lasting memory

Aching from uncertainty

Fear of empty hopes and dreams

To be laid in a palace with kings

My confinement is elaborate enough to fool the soul

Etching of eminence

A victim of distress

Shackled by my own deception

The obsession consumes my life

This doubt inhabits me

Trepidations of a fortune slipping

How can I continue on like this?

From the earth, you will hear me

Buried, I reign

Louder than thunder

Buried, I reign

Fearing this failure

Buried, I reign

Will they remember me?

Buried, I reign

In the palace of names

My passion is a veil

Trapped beneath is a soul of uncertainty

Begging for happiness

Prison of flesh

Repulsion and beauty in one

Looming and slithering

My fears, my fears

My fears have materialized

From the dirt I will reign

To be remembered in a palace of kings

I will reign forever

Buried

I'll reign from beneath

This question in my mind

Once I'm gone

What will it all mean?

The perpetual contemplation

I can't help but feel this sinking feeling

Will I make it?

I have always battled with myself for years

Falling in the depths of doubt, I feel the winds of my chagrin

As the world goes on, I will fade

My stake in this will be my legacy, buried deep with me

From the dirt, I will reign

Buried, I reign

Buried, I reign

You will remember me

Buried, I reign

For my voice will sing from the sky

Buried, I reign

As my soul ascends to the sun

Buried, I reign

As my chapter ends on this earth

Buried, I reign

You'll remember me through these songs

Buried, I reign

Please remember what I have done

Buried

I will reign forever
