The Lonely Prince

Angels and demons flood put of the palace
Make way for the new king
He is here to take his throne at last

The lonely prince sits alone in darkness pondering his life
Where is he going
Is it worth the trouble
His card has turned
Come here my brethren and drink from the cup of immortality
I shall never let my people down

They stormed the castle
And he let them go one by one
The cruel prince
With his dark throne

He sits at his thrown watching his people drop one by one in dispair
A rose stained red with the blood of his followers
As they lay slain at his feet
This had not been his dream

A sweet smell drifts to his nose
The blood of his people stain his robes
He laughs as madness starts at the corners of his mind

Angels and demons storm the castle
They watch as the prince retaliates
His orders barked out in a flurry of hate
Until he notices there is no one left to answer him

He falls in deppression. He is all alone in the kingdom
A madman sets his eyes on the prince
A hand drifts up to his throat
He cannot breath
His pawns set out on their own
No one follows his rule any longer

He watches with his last breath as his throne and crown crumble before him
A sad fate that had always been laid out before him
His head drops in misery
He is alone at last.
