King of You All Letra

But you'll fear me just the same

Never speak before me
If you ever speak at all
And always walk behind me
I'm the king of you all

And where, where are you?
Running with the strays and drifters
Spreading rumours on street corners
Making allies of strangers

Try your hardest to forget now
That you are mine

Walk the desert southwards
Find your family home
Imagine you were free once
That the choice had been your own

Barter in the market
Float the heavy sea
Try your hardest to forget now
That you belong to me

Where, where am I?
Spinning in clock towers
In a thousand clinking glasses
In the long lights on the harbour

In the rolling fields and pastures
In the slums and poor quarters
In the eyes of all your strangers
There am I

Down comes the hammer
And down you all fall
Violent is the sickness
I'm the king of you all
