Have a nice day

A king once said "If a man hasn't found something to die for, he ain't fit to live."
Well I died for you all, but resurrection's a bitch
What do you do when a king walks in?
Do you get on your knees, or die on your feet?
Do you atone for your sins?

(And the mortals sing)
Hail to the king
Get on your knees and bow to me
Do you wanna die for nothing?
Oh, hail to the king
Do you hear those trumpets Gabriel's playing for me?

A king needs a queen, and Clara, my dear
Will you sit on this throne again?
Can I be forgiven?

Of course my love

Well then, let the reign begin

Oh, great

Fucking bow

Oh, king

First order of business; die
Live by the sword, die by thy hand
Death rides a horse of pale white
Tyranny reigns as the worlds collide
Bodies of mortals are merged with the throne
Kneel to the crown, or die by the stone

Heaven has no place in this realm
Corpses burn bright
A signal fire for the foes
Death rides a horse of pale white
He's coming as the king's hand of the right

(And the mortals sing)
Hail to the king
Get on your knees and bow to me
Do you wanna die for nothing?
Oh, hail to the king
When over is thy reign, you will all remember my name
(Sher! Lock! A! Bones!)
True king of the devil's throne

Let the rivers run blood, and be purified
By the fire, royal flames, of the great divine
And when you pay back in your death, you shall be revived
The Hellhound merged worlds so he can never die
The mortals, the monsters, you all sing

Oh, hail to the king (Hail to the king)
Get on your knees and bow to me
Do you wanna die for nothing?
Fucking hail to the king
When over is thy reign, you will all remember my name

A kingdom needs a king and a queen
And with all this misanthropy, I think we're a perfect fit

Let the tyranny begin!
Here comes the thunder

Samsara ignites the flames of an ancient throne
Throw fire, throw stone, the crushing of the bones
Mortality has never quite been in my grasp
But I'll make sure you'll all feel it when I clap my hands
Three worlds kneeling isn't enough for me
7 billion living, dead, and the in-between
This isn't Heaven, nor Hell, this is my tyranny

A parting of the clouds brings us a figure to challenge the king of his throne of his claim
I who paved a way for the Trinity paints the final picture for you all to see

Streets are overrun with minions of the king
Darkness casts a shadow, hope is quickly dwindling
"These worlds were never meant to merge 'til I was ready to reign
Your claim to the throne is feign, for I am the one who set the apocalyptic clock
I gave you keys to the gates knowing you'd all fuck up"

The king screams; "I choose who lives or dies. My power is everything"
"Pathetic"

Quickly cast aside in the pale light
A king and queen fall, like they were pawns all along
Horrified, the Narrator reveals his true name
Baphicho, king of the First Reign

Oh sun, so silent, you showed us the heavens
But at the summit of our divine, we see a mountain inverted; a lie
Now the sky's deep red, encircled with anger
Collapse upon the world does an evil, fallen from its manger
Or is it rising to an apocalyptic climax?
As the ground is scorched by the blood
The skin of the earth; stripped off its back
The Hand of the King, fools gold as it were, has torn the boundaries of God's will to form my new world
The voice of Narration
And I prologue the last tale

I am not a man, but a god
The First Gloom; King Baphicho
Thank you Trinity, for releasing me, for tolling this world's final bell
Heaven hath come, but not before Hell

Oh shit

Prepare for finality
Heaven hath come, but not before Hell
Rip the earth's soul from its carcass
Tear the earth's heart from its core
Blood rains down from hell above as heaven burns below
Heaven burns below

I'll see you all in the new world
Apocalypta
Apocalypta
Apocalypta
Trinity, you've doomed us all
I'll see you all in the new world
Apocalypta
Apocalypta
Apocalypta
Apocalypta
