King of the Slain Lyrics


He wakes alone, mid-flesh and bone

Where swords are crushed and bones turn to dust

Alone, he stands

The king of no man's land

The lord of the scavenger man

On he walks with warrior's stride

And in his steps their kingdoms rise

They're reaching for love, yet war ignites

And on they fight

Kingdoms rise from bones of men

Crumble down at the giant's hand

Sons of Gods, daughters of men

Towers to reach the Nephilim

Among the dead, they crawl and feed

With gnawing hands and tiny teeth

They twist the steel, they shape the slain

And from the rot, they build their domain

As all the titans fall

And echoes of battle fade

He's the king of the slain

On he walks with warrior's stride

And in his steps their kingdoms rise

But deep in the void, a form appears

The giantess near

They're reaching for love, to touch, to feel

To find the hope their hearts will heal

But on the ground where hope is thin

Man's war begins

Kingdoms rise from bones of men

Crumble down at the giant's hand

Sons of Gods, daughters of men

Towers to reach the sky

Oh baby

Their hands reach out

But not to touch

The war beneath

It hurts too much

Her eyes meet his

They peak of pain

Two hearts that long

Yet love in vain

They're reaching for love, to touch, to feel

To find the hope their hearts will heal

Yet on the ground beneath their gaze

A world in flames

Kingdoms rise from bones of men

Crumble down at the giant's hand

Sons of Gods, daughters of men

Towers to reach

Towers to reach

Towers to reach the sky
