about

This song is about chauvinism.

lyrics

She was an ivory tower
A vision of regal pride
Some vied to take her power
With an assassin’s knife

They bucked the guiding touch
Of a softer hand
They came to ask for death
From a wretched half-a-man
They brought the golden price
With shining fever eyes
The smell of cowardice
Clung thickly to their hides

Her beauty stole my breath.
And I began to cut

The flesh is a funny thing
It craves a spark inside
Or a dirty, darkened flame
For burning those still alive
She was born for ruling,
More fair than they deserved
They paid for a life taken
I gave one back to her

Fields of bone
Fields of living bone
Bodies in the streets
She’s coming to get you rats
All hail
The queen of the dead
The kingdom of the dead
All hail
