| [00:11.75] |
The scattered pages of a book by the sea |
| [00:19.46] |
Held by the sand, washed by the waves |
| [00:27.42] |
A shadow forms |
| [00:30.90] |
Cast by a cloud |
| [00:34.90] |
Skimming by |
| [00:38.85] |
As eyes on the past |
| [00:43.70] |
But the rising tide absorbs them |
| [00:50.00] |
Effortlessly claiming |
| [00:55.30] |
They told of one who tired of all |
| [01:00.40] |
Singing "Praise him, praise him" |
| [01:05.40] |
"We heed not flatterers" he cried |
| [01:10.80] |
"By our command |
| [01:14.30] |
Waters retreat |
| [01:18.20] |
Show my power |
| [01:21.80] |
Halt at my feet" |
| [01:25.50] |
But the cause was lost, now cold winds blow |
| [01:31.90] |
Far from the north |
| [01:35.30] |
Overcast ranks advance |
| [01:40.00] |
Fear of the storm |
| [01:43.40] |
Accusing with rage and scorn |
| [01:48.30] |
The waves surround the sinking throne |
| [01:53.60] |
Singing "Crown him, crown him" |
| [01:58.70] |
"Those who love |
| [02:02.80] |
Our majesty |
| [02:06.30] |
Show themselves" |
| [02:09.90] |
All bent their knee |
| [02:12.70] |
But he forced a smile even though his hopes |
| [02:18.40] |
Lay dashed where offerings fell |
| [02:24.40] |
Where they fell |
| [02:27.90] |
"Nothing can my peace destroy |
| [02:33.20] |
As long as none smile" |
| [02:37.90] |
More opened ears and opened eyes |
| [02:43.40] |
And soon they dared to laugh |
| [02:47.30] |
See a little man with his face turning red |
| [02:53.00] |
Though his story's often told you can tell he's dead |
