"Bend The Knee" lyrics

Just bend the knee!

Lonely roads paved in gold
Covered in crowns, buried in bones
Build em up, watch em fall
Kingdoms on high with crumbling thrones

You take what's yours then take it all
You lie, you cheat, you steal

But now fall before me bend the knee
And fade to the darkness
Calling out for mercy
There is none for the heartless, no
Just an empty promise
You're a sky left starless, oh
You rise and fall
You rise and fall to me
Just bend the knee

Torn apart by the sound
Of promises made burned to the ground
Light em up then forget
The dust in the wind is the ash of the dead

You take what's yours then take it all
You beat your chest before the fall
You take what's yours then take it all
You lie, you cheat, you steal

But now fall before me bend the knee
And fade to the darkness
Calling out for mercy
There is none for the heartless, no
Just an empty promise
You're a sky left starless, oh
You rise and fall
You rise and fall to me
Just bend the knee

There is nothing left here
Just an empty promise

But now fall before me bend the knee
And fade to the darkness
Calling out for mercy
There is none for the heartless, no
Just an empty promise
You're a sky left starless, oh
You rise and fall
You rise and fall to me
Just bend the knee
You rise and fall
You rise and fall to me
Just bend the knee!
