Notre Dame (King of Fools) - Warbringer

Oh, you thought that you might rule

They have played you for a fool (A fool)

You could never be like them

Solitude your one true friend

You fool

Can you hear their laughter ring

As they crown you king?

A king of fool

King of fools, king of fools

A broken crown, oh king

Oh, you could never rule

Hahahaha, you fool (You fool)

Can you hear their laughter ring

As they crown you king of fools?

You fool

I call for sanctuary in the spires of Notre Dame

Their kindness was a dagger, I’ll never belong

This world will reject me, this tower is my home

To my one true friend, the gargoyle, I ask

Why am I not made of stone?

Made of stone

I still hear their laughter ring

From down there in the festival of fools

So long the church has stood

A silent witness

Through the ages

All the holy tomes

The histories

Flammable pages

The gargoyle’s long watch is no more

Now the fires will burn

The ancient stone

Of the cathedral

Now the bells shall ring

Nevermore

Atop the steeple

Now the flames engulf

The memories

Of long lost glories

And who will preserve

What was lost?

The unknown stories

And the world will go on, but forever changed
