He'd been hiding behind those walls So safe, riding out the storm They swallowed his lies, while dropping like flies Shown no sympathy Then...Thrown down from his high damn horse Blue blood could not break the fall A fancy veneer, crackled by fear His crown lost all it's might Caught in the onslaught 1349 Would they all perish? A vengeance divine? Streets foul with human remains A ll deprived of their dignity God turned his back They faded to black under his shadow Deep down in the hole that he'd dug Lay his pride and greed in the mud Reality struck, infection came knocking on his door Yersinia Pestis raved lands to west from east The charnel houses filled u, rats enjoyed the feast Far from it's former glory, the kingdom fell apart A humiliated king drove the scepter through his heart There laid by the cold stone walls Eyes all teary in a hollow stare And as darkness descended around him All but solemnly, the end of his despair Caught in the onslaught 1349 Would they all perish? A vengeance divine?
