Church - Kings lyrics

rate me

See history fade, it's crystal clear<br />

Aurora what you doing here<br />

Buttering the mouths of thieves<br />

Shutter speed your bleeding leaves<br />

In gardens in the orient<br />

Likelihood is good and spent<br />

Herod nods beneath the palms<br />

Holds poor baby in his arms<br />

Tunis and Sardinia<br />

The oceans growing hungrier<br />

Beneath these walls we'll sleep tonight<br />

Beneath this sky we'll glide so bright<br />

And kings will come, years will pass<br />

Stars burn cold beneath the glass<br />

And days will glow in distant time<br />

In this storied haze the zephyrs graze<br />

In deserts where the dust storm blows<br />

And lush black swamps where mandrake grows<br />

We're marching laughing to the drum<br />

Waiting for those kings to come<br />

And kings will come and years will pass<br />

Stars burn cold beneath the glass<br />

And days will blow in distant time<br />

In this storied haze the zephyrs graze<br />

An infant with the voice of a crone<br />

In Nebuchanezzars parking zone<br />

Calls out my lord your end is nigh<br />

I didn't mean to make you cry<br />

In deserts where the dust storm blows<br />

And lush black swamps where mandrake grows<br />

We're marching laughing to the drum<br />

Waiting for those kings to come<br />

The circus sun in Nero eyes<br />

The lions and the Christians rise<br />

Software sings and hardware hears<br />

We're destined babe to live these years
