King Is Dead Lyrics

I have not come to worship you

Only flowers at your throne



I have not come to plead or beg

Or to claim what is my own



Oh i know you are the king

And you'll say what is wrong



I have come to cut you down

And to leave your body dead



You do not mean so much to me

Nor that crown upon your head



You are just as sad as me

You are lonely flesh and blood



And the time has come for you to die



And now you bleed, please spare my life

You know i'm the chosen one



I don't believe what you bequeth

And i must do what must be done



You say you're the only king

Your words just fall like rain
