Lyrics
/********************/
/* ABOUT: Many cities of Kings were destroyed at the end of the 19th century in order to make way for the so-called "Modern State". Entire royal families, including children, were slaughtered in favor of modern revolutions. */

INSTRUMENTAL
Verse 1
Shadows fell on marble streets,
The bells were drowned by wings of stone,
Echoes of fear, the silence bleeds,
The royal crown lies overthrown.
Pre-Chorus
No prayer was heard, no sword could rise,
The night devoured the morning skies...
Chorus
City of Kings, never again shall I see your sublime skies!
City of Kings, victim of madness, we will never forget your cries!
Verse 2
The queen lay cold, the children slain,
The fortress crumbled, fire reigned,
Statues awoke with bloodstained eyes,
Cursed to reign where the daylight dies.
Pre-Chorus
The silence speaks, the darkness sings,
Of broken crowns and shattered wings...
Chorus
City of Kings, never again shall I see your sublime skies!
City of Kings, victim of madness, we will never forget your cries!
Bridge
Echoes of sorrow through shattered halls,
Ancient shadows carve their calls,
No song, no light, just endless night,
The kingdom drowned in endless blight.
Final Chorus - extended
City of Kings, never again shall I see your sublime skies!
City of Kings, victim of madness, we will never forget your cries!
City of Kings, ashes and stone, your memory forever will rise!
