The Queen behind the veil is mindless
Depraved and without love and kindness
The song she sings has lost its soul
The King is busy with his plot
Promises of love forgotten
The words are bold but without soul
So - a stranger comes to town
With a promise of salvation
For those about to drown
Smile while you carry on
You know that the thrill is gone
You smile until the light goes down
It's the nature of the game
Rising banners on navy skylines
Each and every day gets colder
No remorse for drowning souls
He is just a King who lost his marbles and his mind
The Queen is silent and alone
He built her a prison that he calls home
Dreams at night are crude and cold, as love grows old
The King is gathering all his men
Reverted back to sword from pen
A genius lie but it drowned in cries
So - a stranger comes to town
With a promise of salvation
For those about to drown
Smile while you carry on
You know that the thrill is gone
You smile until the light goes down
It's the nature of the game
Rising banners on navy skylines
Each and every day gets colder
No remorse for drowning souls
He is just a King who lost his marbles and his mind
