As It Was Told Lyrics

by Sacred Rite

When the walls of the castle come down and the King is nowhere in sight

Take command of the soldiers and be their new leader for the rest of the night

The fortune is there, it's hidden in the dungeon, take what you find

Of the riches, and the knowledge, and the freedom, and leave the rest there, behind

As the battle for your kingdom rages on and on, watch your men as they die

And the slaughter of your people subsides, for there's no one left alive

When the smoke blows away and there's nothing left to say, the dead will arise

And assassinate their leader, who turned and ran away, for leaving them to die



In the palace, on the street, hidden in everyone you meet

Is a hatred or a love, fighting for the domination of the other's defeat

If the hatred wins, the people kill each other in despair

And the essence of the blood of the battle seeps out and fills the air

If the love wins, the hatred conquered, fleeing in exile

And the children run free, for everyone to see, they're pleased for a while

Everybody's sayin' that the way to get to heaven is to be a good boy, now

But the way to get to heaven is a path that's been faded since the day you were born
