lyrics

Proud is the pauper become prince
Putrid the fruits of his reign
Illusive is he
Dripping with disdain
Condemned are we
To trials of shame

Virtue clothed in dirty rags
Banished by the rabble
Exiled from these burdened hearts
Delivers the winds of hatred

Above, where seated in his tower
I saw Conquest depicted in his power
There was a sharpened sword above his head
That hung there by the thinnest simple thread

What does it take to lie flat the hubris of man?
Is it to feast at the table of penance?
Or to choke on the most lavish poisoned wine?
For all things must come to an end
And uneasy lies the head that wears the crown
