Текст песни
I wear a smile, a lawyer's guise
But ancient blood is in my eyes
My line began in desert suns
A gilded city for immortal ones
My father, king, a name erased
By deals he made, a soul displaced
He heard the whispers, claimed the might
And plunged his world in endless night
I had it all, a silver spoon
Beneath a broken, burning moon
He loved her once, with fire and grace
Then used her soul to keep his place
A-a-a-a-a-a
We are waiting
The whispers call me to the throne
A legacy in gilded stone
But I saw the price of power's art
It tears a loving soul apart
So I'll earn my joy, I'll pay my way
And keep the inner choir at bay
A cautionary, tragic tale
To chose my soul, and not to fail
They locked him up, the fallen king
And silenced every song I'd sing
Put me to sleep, to start anew
To serve a will I never knew
On Earth, I fight the unseen shade
With binding words and deals I've made
I banish demons, play the game
Then you appeared and called my name
A different light in my design
A fragile heart so close to mine
A-a-a-a-a-a
We are waiting
The whispers call me to the throne
A legacy in gilded stone
But I saw the price of power's art
It tears a loving soul apart
So I'll earn my joy, I'll pay my way
And keep the inner choir at bay
A cautionary, tragic tale
To chose my soul, and not to fail
They laid a hand on you, and stirred
The ancient rage in every word
The voices screamed, demanded blood
A crimson tide, a righteous flood
I'd burn this world to keep you safe
From every ghost and every wraith
They offer me the fiery crown
The broken kingdom, falling down
But all I want is what I see
A different kind of destiny
Your mortal life, or my endless one?
Our new story has just begun
