Taken from the upcoming album Shadow Figures, “Tomb King” blends into the album’s overarching themes of death and the blurred boundaries between the living and the spirit world. The song is told from the perspective of deeply discontented peasants calling for the head of their dead and buried king.
Lyrics
Tomb King
Bring head
Tomb King
Bring it
Tomb King
Bring head
Tomb King
Bring it
Tomb King
Bring me his head
Tomb King
Bring It
Tomb King
Bring head
Tomb King
Bring the king’s head
Moonlight shards, shine the way
Tomb King stirs, but his grave is in disarray
Tomb King
Tomb King
Tomb King
Bring me his head
Tomb King
Bring It
Tomb King
Bring head
Tomb King
Tomb King
Bring It
Tomb King
Bring the king’s head
