Lyric

Your judgment has been passed, my love, my dear

I gaze upon your face, though it’s cold and near

A blackened rose, the ghost of what you were

A puppet of the people, a shadow in a blur

Just a hollow longing that led the world astray

The rose has turned to ash in the light of day

Discarding everything that didn’t suit your whim

Indulging in the luxury until the cup is brim

Given everything, you thought you were a god

A naked king, so foolish, a pathetic facade

Is there nothing in this world that you couldn't do?

How comical the play, how bitter and how true!

Pride, Greed, and Envy!

Wrath, Lust, Gluttony, and Sloth!

You committed every sin, breaking every oath

A brainless queen bee, a vessel made of glass

A pitiful doll while the seasons pass

With the hands that offered you a crimson rose

I’ll take your head tonight, as the story close!

This time!

For the one I leaned on, back to back in the sun

For the red rose of courage, the only one

With the hands that offered you a crimson rose

I’ll cut you down tonight!

I end it! This time!

Pride, Greed, and Envy!

Wrath, Lust, Gluttony, and Sloth!

You committed every sin, breaking every oath

O foolish queen bee, headless on the throne

A pitiful puppet, left all alone

With the hands that offered you a crimson rose

I’ve struck you down! It’s finally done!

Never again shall the cycle repeat

Raise the shout of victory, the bitter and the sweet

The puppet is gone! The stage is bare!
