He was the candle in the cave
And through the night
He was the star we followed
His voice could save the day
But now the king is dead
The king is dead
The king is dead
The king is dead
And as we lay him in the grave
Our waking hearts will forget him never
We'll miss him each and every day
After all it's only forever
The king is dead (it's only forever)
The king is dead (it's not long at all)
The king is dead (it's only forever)
The king is dead
What is a land without its king?
I feel like I've lost everything
Who'll take his place and bravely cry
"Long live the king"?
Without a king inside
The king is dead (it's only forever)
The king is dead (it's not long at all)
The king is dead (it's only forever)
The king is dead (he is dead)
