Текст Therion – The King

He was a leader of a small gang
Committing crimes each day
But time has changed as he was proud
It’s a far away

He took living easy, his bad reputation
Oh it was known all around
But he didn’t care no, he made the demandings
Now he’s down and out

Thought he knew the tricks of life
Prowling in the dark
Now he’s left by all his friends
‘Cause he lived apart, of them

He was a leader, a vicious survivor
His fame is covered with blood
Now he’s just a number, he lost all his power
The king has lost his face

Down down down, though the king lost his crown
Caught and sentenced, he was guilty
Down down down, though the king lost his crown
It’s too late — far too high
Late far too high

He was a leader of a small gang
Committing crimes each day
But time has changed as he was proud
It’s a far away

He took living easy, his bad reputation
Oh it was known all around
But he didn’t care no, he made the demandings
Now he’s down and out

Down down down, though the king lost his crown

Down down down, though the king lost his crown
Caught and sentenced, he was guilty
Down down down, though the king lost his crown
It’s too late — far too high
Late far too high
