The king in on his throne

He claims that he owns

Our heartbeats beating

The songs that we’ve sown

The king on his throne

He thinks we hold on

His very breathing

His cold haughty tone

You fell but you flew

You lost but you fought

Now I will fight too

Against all they brought

Now I will hear you

Sing through the trees

The love that I grew

Will set us all free

———

You said to us all

His kingdom will fall

And we’ll come rising

All we need is gall

You said to us all

There’s no time to stall

The dawn is singing

Rebellion’s call

———

You fell but you flew

You lost but you fought

Now I will fight too

Against all they brought

Now I will hear you

Sing through the trees

The love that I grew

Will set us all free

———

The king had you killed

His armies, they stilled

The commoner forces

That your hope did build

The king had you killed

Your spirit strong-willed

The priest endorses

The blood that they spilled

———

You fell but you flew

You lost but you fought

Now I will fight too

Against all they brought

Now I will hear you

Sing through the trees

The love that I grew

Will set us all free

———

This was long ago

As I have heard so

But still your story

Continues to flow

This was long ago

But people, they know

Of all your glory

The hope you bestow

———

You fell but you flew

You lost but you fought

Now I will fight too

Against all they brought

Now I will hear you

Sing through the trees

The love that I grew

Will set us all free

———

And so we will win

Us commoner kin

We’ll have our vengeance

Against every sin

And so we will win

Because we’re all kin

The king’s resplendence

We’ll finally skin

———

You fell but you flew

You lost but you fought

Now I will fight too

Against all they brought

Now I will hear you

Sing through the trees

The love that I grew

Will set us all free207Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ99VHUIYkh2
