Unspoken Triumph Crown the Bastard King lyrics

enthrone your golden idol
entranced by serpent's gaze
infatuation with hope
ensnared by warrants made

you had said
there was nothing more to fear
you had read
darkest days are now extinct
your mistake
you overlooked the backroom deals
might as well
crown the fucking bastard king

obeys the whims of shadows
alliance held with thieves
usurper of dependence
enables wanton greed

as lightning from the heavens
strikes all painted rivals down
destroyer of rebellion
waged against the holy crown

now you see
power lust is never pure

now you know
the truth behind that handsome grin
never trust
a promise tied to man's ambition
might as well
crown that crooked bastard king

all hope
is gone forever

i witness as the legions cling
to their fruitless devotion
they do not wish to ever see
beyond their native notions

i abhor
the frailty of resistance now
i object
to giving in so easily
but i have failed
and man has fallen much too far
might as well
crown that fucking bastard king
