Kingdoms

from Crows Into Swine by Pheroze

/

lyrics

I met a man whose dreams got sold
He held a kingdom in his woes
He said Brother, I've got a story for you
and he began to spill his soul

He said I've suffered through this life
I killed a man for a lie
I shot him down because he had no name
and I refused to watch him die

There's no meaning to our new frustration
That's the secret of a failing nation
Dark shadows masked in celebration of our fears

Then my brother closed his eyes
The searing calm ran his mind
He said You're free to seek the past you choose
If it will help you live your life

There's no meaning to our new frustration
That's the secret of a failing nation
Dark shadows masked in celebration of our fears

Believe what you're sold
that's the hard way to pay
the kingdoms will fold
but the castles will stay

There's no meaning to our new frustration
That's the secret of a failing nation
Dark shadows masked in celebration of our fears
