Lyrics

We'd like to continue with something else from "A Farewell To Kings"
 This brings Alex to the classic guitar
 This is called "A Farewell To Kings"
 ♪
 When they turn the pages of history
 When these days have passed long ago
 Will they read of us with sadness
 For the seeds that we let grow
 We turned our gaze from the castles in the distance
 Eyes cast down on the path of least resistance
 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
 ♪
 The hypocrites are slandering the sacred halls of truth
 Ancient nobles showering their bitterness on youth
 Can't we find the minds that made us strong
 Oh, can't we learn to feel what's right and what's wrong
 What's wrong?
 ♪
 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
 Can't we raise our eyes, make a start?
 Can't we find the minds to lead us closer to the heart?
