Lyrics

Dethroned Emperor

[Verse 1]

See the portal, gate to madness

Locked forever in a veil of shame

Deny extraction

Thirst for disgrace

Watch him rage

The emperor's killed

Light of the day

Shadows from beyond

Scaffold of steel

The door has shut

[Chorus]

Dethroned emperor

Dethroned emperor

[Verse 2]

The foot of the stairs, dimension in might

The king sits, his eyes are glass

Growing of the small

The laughter's fall

Can you deny

Remaining cries?

The castle of the lords

Into the trap

Existence and hate

Unseen gate

[Chorus]

Dethroned emperor

Dethroned emperor
