King is Dead

"King is Dead"
World on Fire (2005)
Written by Altiyan Childs
Performed by Masonia
Produced by Masonia and Russell Pilling

You are the greatest of all pain
My falsified religion seeking refuge in my veins
In the middle of the night
How you'd declare your love for mine
Nothing compares to these unfathomable tears of sadness

I am so weak
Now that my love for you is stronger than my body
Contamination of the brain
I see your eyes screaming out my name
When they used to call me hero
They watched me go from hero to zero in time

May God place a curse upon my name
If I ever write a love song about you again
I say, to hell with being original
Turning motion into lyric is miserable
Especially when it comes to you

I am so weak
Now that my love for you is stronger than my body
Contamination of the brain
I see your eyes screaming out my name
When they used to call me hero
They watched me go from hero to zero in...

The king is dead
The king is dead
The king is dead
Long live the king

You turned water into wine
And you drank it all by nine
Yes you saved the best for last
When you turned Jekyll into Hyde

I am so weak
Now that my love for you is stronger than my body
Contamination of the brain
I see your eyes screaming out my name, yeah
Do you remember my name?
Hero to zero
From hero to zero
From hero to zero
From hero to zero in time

The king is dead (long live the king)
The king is dead (long live the king)
The king is dead (long live the king)
Long live the king
I said the king is dead
