The King - Therion

He was a leader of a small gang

Committing crimes each day

But time has changed as he was proud

It’s a far away

He took living easy, his bad reputation

Oh it was known all around

But he didn’t care no, he made the demandings

Now he’s down and out

Thought he knew the tricks of life

Prowling in the dark

Now he’s left by all his friends

'Cause he lived apart, of them

He was a leader, a vicious survivor

His fame is covered with blood

Now he’s just a number, he lost all his power

The king has lost his face

Down down down, though the king lost his crown

Caught and sentenced, he was guilty

Down down down, though the king lost his crown

It’s too late — far too high

Late far too high

He was a leader of a small gang

Committing crimes each day

But time has changed as he was proud

It’s a far away

He took living easy, his bad reputation

Oh it was known all around

But he didn’t care no, he made the demandings

Now he’s down and out

Down down down, though the king lost his crown

Caught and sentenced, he was guilty

Down down down, though the king lost his crown

It’s too late — far too high

Down down down, though the king lost his crown

Caught and sentenced, he was guilty

Down down down, though the king lost his crown

It’s too late — far too high

Late far too high
