The Cynic and the King

[Verse 1]
Sanguine, crimson
Morning afterglow
Telltale signs of a
Midnight horror show

Wandering all day
Searching for an honest man
Guided by the light
Of a rusty oil lamp

[Chorus]
Only you could love
Like true love
Affinity, no common
Break for thee

Oh my brother
Where have you gone?
A languid lover
A carrying crone

You're just with another
Now chance it alone
Together you and I
On a chariot up high
I’ll see you some day soon again, my love

[Verse 2]
Boneyard deaf
March-seething
Muffle drum

Shameless praise
And pomp shine
In the sun

Squandering away
Social values of the land
Socrates gone mad
[?] the morning band

[Chorus]
Only you could love
Like true love
Divinity, no common
Break for thee

Oh my brother
Where have you gone?
A languid loved
A carrying crone

You're just with another
Now chance it alone
Together you and I
On a chariot up high
I'll see you some day soon again, my love
