No King Reigns Eternal

These halls are silent
Only shadows linger here
Once great kingdom
Now in ruins
Insanity will conquer
Madness will rule
Mighty king's diadem
All the glory gone

Buried in dust

Venomous words uttered
By the man in black robes
A pact with Death
The gift of mortality
Once clear mind
Now clouded by lies
As darkness descends
All will be slain

Buried in nightmares
No king reigns eternal

Aeons come and go
The king still upon his throne
The weight of the dead
Upon his frail shoulders
A betrayer, they chanted
A traitor, they found
The high have fallen
Eternity in shame

Death
