I am a king of honor

Gold and glory

But every king must also die

Have I been just and righteous

What is glory

I know I've torn and taken life.

And here I stand

A small and simple man.

Who will trade his karma for my kingdom

A sacrificial rite to render truth

The fire in my soul rejects my wisdom

Cause all you do in life comes back to you.

I am a king in crisis

Counting minutes

There is an ending to my reign

My sins have come to face me

I can feel it

That I have lived my life in vain

And now I know I'll reap

The seeds I've sown.

Who will trade his karma for my kingdom

A sacrificial rite to render truth

The fire in my soul rejects my wisdom

Cause all you do in life comes back to you.

Am I mad

I feel so void and cold

Who can tell

Who holds the stories untold

Tired and trembling

I am descending

Will I have to stay here

And live this life again.
