Kingdom Come
The King sits ever on his throne;
Regal wisdom in his gaze.
Heroes come to bow before him.
His subjects sing his praise.
-
A young man locked beneath the castle;
Punished for a forbidden love;
His broken body writhes in torment.
His wife imprisoned up above.
-
The guard stands ever vigilant;
Never noticed, he stands ignored.
A sworn oath to protect his Master.
Service is its own reward.
-
The princess hides within her chambers;
Never does she leave the room.
Betrothed to one she does not love;
She weeps for a forbidden groom.
