The Piper

In the city of shadows where troubles ran deep
A kind piper came with his flute so sweet
Sitting on the rooftop, listening to the sounds
Creeping in the village luring people out
Everybody join in, leader takes the crown
Signify the struggle, elevate the ground
Hiding in the bushes, I can hear them play
Every given promise, every word betrayed
Ashes on the pathway, scattered like a stone
No more songs to follow, no more borrowed throne
I see people (I see people)
Restless people (restless people)
Watching me, endlessly
The fury, the reckoning
Pied Piper – lead us and teach us, take us to the other level
Pied Piper – fed us the lies we’ve swallowed down forever
Pied Piper – we break the chains that pulled us back together
Pied Piper – we’re stronger now, our drums boom now and ever
Pied Piper – this is it, you’ve finally faced your karma
Pied Piper – kill your happiness and rip your smile apart
Pied Piper – this is it, you’ve finally faced your karma
Pied Piper – watch your empire burn and your kingdom fall apart
