Kings Without a Throne

The king has left his throne
And now the kingdom stands alone
Afar we watch and wait
But they won’t let us through the gates
They mourn a memory
The future they refuse to see
Worship fallen deities
And watch the whole world fall down to its knees
So we go the lonely road
Only one we’ve ever known
You reap everything you sow
Wandering kings without a throne
Without a penny to our names
We keep the candles lit we hold the flame
While the drunken revelries
Reward the whores
And pander to the thieves
But the hour’s growing late
For desparate men and measures that they take
Soon you will regret the day
That you ever pushed our love away
So we go the lonely road
Only one we’ve ever known
You reap everything you sow
Wandering kings without a throne
