Lyrics

Verse 1: In shadows' cast by moon’s cold gleam, A phantom stirs from restive dreams, Where stones mark tales of king and knave, Here lies the zealot, none could save. Chorus: For the king and I, we dance alike, On wooden stage under blade’s cold strike, In graves unmarked by creed or crown, In death's embrace, all men bow down. Verse 2: I led with iron, heart encased, Dreams of virtue, freedom chased, Yet here I dwell where willows weep, With royal bones, in silence deep. Chorus: For the king and I, we dance alike, On wooden stage under blade’s cold strike, In graves unmarked by creed or crown, In death's embrace, all men bow down. [Bassoon solo] Bridge: O Revolution, cruel and vast, Your promises, they did not last, Equality’s sharp, double-edged sword, Cut through the lie we all adored. Verse 3: From the Louvre to the crowded square, The cries of justice filled the air, But what's the worth of a severed head, When tyrants rise in martyrs' stead? Chorus: For the king and I, we dance alike, On wooden stage under blade’s cold strike, In graves unmarked by creed or crown, In death's embrace, all men bow down. Bridge: [Spoken] O Revolution, cruel and vast, Your promises, they did not last, Equality’s sharp, double-edged sword, Cut through the lie we all adored. [Instrumental] [Violin solo] Verse 3: From the Louvre to the crowded square, The cries of justice filled the air, But what's the worth of a severed head, When tyrants rise in martyrs' stead? Chorus: For the king and I, we dance alike, On wooden stage under blade’s cold strike, In graves unmarked by creed or crown, In death's embrace, all men bow down. Outro: Now echoes fade of guillotine’s ring, Both pawn and king, their end we sing, For in the ground, we're all the same, Just whispered names in history’s gam [silence] [Eerie] Spoken: O Revolution, cruel and vast, Your promises, they did not last, Equality’s sharp, double-edged sword, Cut through the lie we all adored. [silence] [Eerie] [Declamed:] O Revolution, cruel and vast, Your promises, they did not last, Equality’s sharp, double-edged sword, Cut through the lie we all adored.
