- Hail To The King LyricsWatch your tongue or have it cut from your head
Save your life by keeping whispers unsaid
Children roam the streets now orphans of war
Bodies hanging in the streets to adore
Royal flames will carve a path in chaos
Bring daylight to night
Death is riding into town with armor
They came to take all your rights
Hail to the King
Hail to the one
Kneel to the crown
Stand in the sun
Hail to the King
Hail!
Hail!
Hail!
The king...
Blood is spilt while holding keys to the throne
Born again but its to late to atone
No mercy from the edge of the blade
Dare escape and learn the price to be payed
Let the water flow with shades of red now
Arrows blackout all the light (light)
Death is riding in the town with armor
They've came to grant you your rights
Hail to the King
Hail to the one
Kneel to the crown
Stand in the sun
Hail to the King
Hail!
Hail!
Hail!
The king...
[solo]
There's a taste of fear (hail, hail, hail)
When the henchmen call (hail, hail, hail)
Iron fist to tame the land (hail, hail, hail)
Iron fist to claim it all
Hail to the King
Hail to the one
Kneel to the crown
Stand in the sun
Hail to the King

Hail!
Hail!
Hail!
Save your life by keeping whispers unsaid
Children roam the streets now orphans of war
Bodies hanging in the streets to adore
Royal flames will carve a path in chaos
Bring daylight to night
Death is riding into town with armor
They came to take all your rights
Hail to the King
Hail to the one
Kneel to the crown
Stand in the sun
Hail to the King
Hail!
Hail!
Hail!
The king...
Blood is spilt while holding keys to the throne
Born again but its to late to atone
No mercy from the edge of the blade
Dare escape and learn the price to be payed
Arrows blackout all the light (light)
Death is riding in the town with armor
They've came to grant you your rights
Hail to the King
Hail to the one
