Machine Head - Killers & Kings lyrics

rate me

(Verse)

Dark Lady read me the future

The ancient verse hidden away

I turn from the evergray, and

Tarot cards keep us enraptured

Open-minds become a sage

Let this unlock the cage!

(Chorus)

Ancient power, darkest hour...

Open your 3rd eye and you'll see

(killers and kings!) Inheritors of Earth

(killers and kings!) From death there comes rebirth

And as an army we will sing, a diamond bears our ring

Killers and kings!

(Verse 2)

Look to Earth, summon the master

Awake the human livin' inside

Ecclesiastici, the hangman gives into temperance

The sunshine's owned by the fool

High priestess, spreads her war

Death and rebirth, decaying mind

Open your 3rd eye and you'll see

(killers and kings!) Inheritors of Earth

(killers and kings!) From death there comes rebirth

And as an army we will sing, a diamond bears our ring

Killers and kings

The diamond bears our ring, yeah, oh!!!

(Instrumental break)

(Verse 3)

The king of pentacles is here

Strength and fortitude, help them push away the fear

We stand atop the mountain with the hungry and the lamp

As the lovers in the knight of swords give in to the damned

What do The Cards say? The prophecy remains

The devil in the emperor could keep us locked in chains

And the death card doesn't mean you'll die

It means a change is comin' that you simply can't deny

(Chorus)

Reborn, rebirth!

From death comes rebirth!

((killers and kings!) Inheritors of Earth

(killers and kings!) From death there comes rebirth

And as an army we will sing, a diamond bears our ring

Killers and kings

(killers and kings!) Inheritors of Earth

(killers and kings!) From death there comes rebirth

And as an army we will sing, a diamond bears our ring

Killers and kings!!!
