Bend the Knee Songtext
von Lansdowne

Just bend the knee!

Lonely roads, paved in gold
Covered in crowns, buried in bones
Build ′em up, watch 'em fall
Kingdoms on high, with crumbling thrones

You take what′s yours, then take it all
You lie, you cheat, you steal

But now fall before me, bend the knee
And fade to the darkness
Calling out for mercy
There is none for the heartless, no
Just an empty promise
You're a sky left starless, oh
You rise and fall, you rise and fall to me
Just bend the knee!

Torn apart, by the sound
Of promises made, burned to the ground
Light 'em up, then forget
The dust in the wind, is the ash of the dead


You take what′s yours, then take it all
You beat your chest before the fall
You take what′s yours, then take it all
You lie, you cheat, you steal

But now, fall before me, bend the knee
And fade to the darkness
Calling out for mercy
There is none for the heartless, no
Just an empty promise
You're a sky left starless, oh
You rise and fall, you rise and fall to me
Just bend the knee!

There is nothing left here
Just an empty promise!

But now fall before me, bend the knee
And fade to the darkness
Calling out for mercy
There is none for the heartless, no
Just an empty promise
You′re a sky left starless, oh
You rise and fall, you rise and fall to me
Just bend the knee!


You rise and fall, you rise and fall to me
Just bend the knee!
