Kingslayers Songtext
von Aeronwen

Madness laid waste, the kingslayers rise
Lost and forsaken, our kingdom′s demise
Ravens on blackened bough
Call through the mist and snow
One last goodbye to you now

With the wolves at our door, you just stood
All the signs I foretold you ignored
With your enemies out for your rich royal blood
Your pride took your life just as sure as the sword

No ballads are sung, no immortal life
Just royal bones ravaged by fire and ice
Left to rot where you fell
No mourners, no burial
One last goodbye to you now

With the wolves at our door, you just stood
All the signs I foretold you ignored
With your enemies out for your rich royal blood
Your pride took your life just as sure as the sword


Our moment of splendor now death and decay
None will remember the grace of our reign
The long years of peace now gone
The fierce loyalties undone
One last goodbye to you now

Mortuus est
Autem rex
Vivat rex
Gloria in Deo

You heeded my warnings before
But pride made you hunger for war
No reign of splendor lasts
All years of plenty pass
The Die of Fate is cast
Bloodlust wins at last

White wolves are howling a requiem
Another night falls to another red dawn
Ravens rise, circle round
You lie cold in the ground
My last goodbye to you now

Through courtyards of carnage and flame
With our child in my arms I escaped
His bloodline concealed now and forevermore
No kingslayers plotting, no wolves at the door
