KING OF YESTERDAY
Come now remembered madnesscome dance with me, just take awaythe morning’s guilty, stained caress,let me dip and weave and sway. Introduce not your ugly charmsfor I am King of Yesterday,just take me in your twisted armslet darkness be the price I pay. Let your fame, your evil magic spell,bring peace unto a heart gone stale,if not, then let us dance to Hellto greet the promises that failed. When I was King of YesterdayI sat and thought like Plato's friendbut now the thoughts are swept awayand madness brings about the end. So let us dance and let us sing,foul maiden with the darkened heart,I'm not afraid to let you inso I, at least can play my part. Yesterday my love ran trueand flesh felt smooth beneath my handsI never, ever thought of youuntil my love brought base demands. Excitement was the drug I cravedand passion ruled the youthful heartbut then the soul became depravedand death awaits to play its part. So dance with me and sing to me,dark Ofious of the underworld,give me one foul moment before I seethe Ferryman's black hand unfurl
