The King Is Slain
The Prince
Cheers to the Prince he is home
Steps from his horse like a throne
I cherish his every dream
This man, this boy, should be King
He's the one that we love
Ten feet tall but a dove
To the ladies he flees
Tonight we drink to our knees
Sow your wild oats
Raise your drink to the skies
Pull your wench to your side
The Prince has so much to tell
'for he covers his eyes
It's a dark place whence he come
You can tell by his eyes
For its murder that flies
Too far from the fires eye
Contemplation
We must bide our time
Till our fortune decides
If we throw the bones too soon all will die
Orpheus play my triumph
The Challenge
By Sabzious horse I demand
The Odrysian throne is mine
You will place it at my feet,
Your spear, your heart and your eyes
The Promise
If you follow me men
Down this treacherous road
Thracian horsemen will bend
Almoxis will make the underworld our home
Pledge thy King
If you pledge to thy King
Orpheus surely will sing
Eurydice's love it will bring
Thunder to my throne
A land to conquer
Now we ride for the skies
Thracian horsemen besides
The God of Thunder has much to tell
'for he covers his eyes
It's a dark place whence we go
You can tell by his lies
For its murder that flies
Too far from the fires eye
The battle plan
We must hold our line
If we throw our spears too soon all will die
Come on Orpheus play our triumph
The King speaks
By Sabzious horse I demand
The Triballi's land is mine
They will place it at my feet,
Their spears, Their hearts and their minds
Glory be thy King
Glory be thy King
The battle begins
Ride
Ride for the mountains
Take the King
His life depends on you
Ride, ride, ride
The King falls
The King has fallen
And I don't know what to do
Slings & Arrows
For these are the slings & arrows
That slay a King
Nothing noble in an archers string
Like Hades assassins they did him in
The king is slain
Now he's been laid to rest
his bedraggled bones in a chest
No memories, no moments are left
The King's been slain.
