There was a time So long ago Love with every seam Feels just like a dream There was a time A gentle hand Gone for centuries But she's still with me The Ruined King, a feeble man The sort to take, because he can I had no choice but watch her fade away So, death to the King Your love is suffocating You can't control everything Bring death to the King I sat and watched As he consumed Call it what you will I call it smothering A toxic love She paid the price Lifeless in his arms Lifeless thread and yarn Death to the King Your love is suffocating You can't control everything Bring death to the King Death to the King I loved her deeply to the end But your delusion has no bounds You simply cannot comprehend That you're a madman with a crown? I'd rather paint the world in black Your pain just cannot change the facts There is no way to bring her back (I'll find a way to bring her back) The spark of life We lost her both So you went to war But the blame was yours Your time of rule Is at an end Time to set her free But keep the memories The Ruined King, a feeble man You only take, because you can I had no choice but watch her fade away Death to the King Your love is suffocating You can't control everything Bring death to the King Death to the King Your love is suffocating You can't control everything I will bring death to the King Death to the King
