lyrics

I only hear
As clear as I’m allowed
What lies beneath the words?
Truth is hidden from my eyes

The corrupted power
That rests on corrupted slaves
Now when all rules are gone
Time for the rat to play its game

His private army
Has high morale and zero boundaries
You better stay away
Or end up beyond any help

Only a truly dark mind has a chance
To be friends with the crowned old rat

—

Games of the Wicked King
You won't be down to play with him
Not down to play with him

There is no win
When playing with the Wicked King
Sacrifices will be made
When playing with the Wicked King

—

His palace stands
On a mountain of his former friends’s heads
His people live in shit
Near his golden steps

Ones who can speak
Are always fast to be gone or deadly sick
For many there's no need to care,
‘Cause Bishop clearly said:
"God supports the King!"

—

There’s no escape from here
You have to stay and work hard
Tomorrow's another long day
No can be late

Our god has other castles here and there
Only the King and his dear friends
Can cross the state
