Romance Of A Dead Kingdom

Rishloo

Sleep now 
Fragile 
Cradle my hope 
Dream 'til morning 
Rising again 
To uphold my claims to power 
Promises bind 
This place to me 
Peace I have found 
In a vision pure and simple 
Here in this world 
I am the king 
Dreams trouble my conscience 
With thoughts of those betrayed 
Prophecies certain 
Bring me to conflict often 
But comfort has always triumphed 
Against a change 

Walking again 
Among these familiar faces 
Hearing the same 
Praises they speak 
All here is well 
But somehow so unnerving 
In the eyes of a child 
The world looks bleak 
Fears grow ever bolder 
Threatening disgrace 
All that will be 
Grows clearer with every moment 
Whispers turn now to shouting for my 
escape 
Awake 
Brashly you stifled warnings 
See now the fruits of failure 
Ignorant liar 
Did you truly think 
You could stay here awhile 
And avoid your fate 
Crawling, grasping, searching, reaching for a 
path 
Through all this chaos choking on the ashes 
Of a life that suddenly has passed 
And as the screams subside 
I slowly raise my head 
To watch the final ruin 
And see my kingdom's end
