A King with No Crown - Anubis

It’s all superiority;

Your wildest dreams

A yearning notoriety;

Knife in back, end justifies the means

Live atop the highest peak

Plated in gold

The altitude will make you weak;

As you fall you’ll see your name dissolve

A fantasy that will not hide

The casualty that lives inside

Reality will always be

A lingering memory

It’s all so very saleable;

With a lie on your face

The taste you bring is unbearable —

But taste can be so easily erased

Ambition lies in distant dreams;

You’re a king with no crown —

As you’re left to walk the same old streets

With the pain that haunts you in your cold hometown

A fantasy that will not hide

The casualty that lives inside

Reality will always be

A lingering memory

(Keys Solo)

A fantasy that will not hide

The casualty that lives inside

Reality will always be

A lingering memory

The time will come and you will know —

The demons come to overthrow;

When all of this will cease to be;

A memory to you and me
