Kings and Queens (Ove Ritola)

Kings and queens of empty words I could be a royalty On my throne I'd spare a seat for you A liar's crown bestowed upon me (It) weighs heavy in all its gold Loot from some useless victory A heart's only half a heart With silence erased Once it's forgotten it can't be replaced Kings and queens of empty words Empires built on double speak They that sow in tears shall reap in joy A borrowed glory and a mask like yours I could be the king you need A split tongue to kiss your feet A heart's only half a heart With silence erased Once it's forgotten it can't be replaced
