Kings

We used to be kings,
with no filth and no scum
we were brighter than violet and sharper than steel
until you came along
And you came like hell.
Oh you ravaged and raged
Against all that we loved, against all that we cherished,
and all that we praised
And I’m through
yeah I’m through
being your slave
We used to be fine,
we were feeling alright
We had people to love, and we loved everyone
every day every night
But I’m holding you close,
so close to my soul
If you think things are fine well you better rewind
cause I think your alone
And I’m through
yeah I’m through
You know I’m through
yeah I’m through
being your slave
In the springtime we sang,
we had more than enough
It was you, it was me, and our God he made three
and we knew we were loved
But after the fall,
well we’re losing our faith
Cause it’s cold and it’s painful
I feel all my chains when I’m trapped in this place
You know I’m through
yeah I’m through
You know I’m through
yeah I’m through
being your slave
