One hundred year's ago

Intro: Verse: In a cold city, damp and dark, Not a soul in sight, Ghosts were lurking in the hush, In the depths of silence tight. Full of legends, full of secrets, Shrouded in dread, it lay. Chorus: 2 A hundred years ago, A king ruled all below, And in the palace, queen did dwell. The courtiers feared her gaze so cold, So stern she was, we’re told. But she is not the same, no more. Verse: That day at market, jesters near, A flock of black birds gathered here. They called it an omen, dark and clear, Voices cried upon the wind, so clear. On the field, the king did fall — Bring back the life, recall it all. Chorus: 2 A hundred years ago, A king ruled all below, And in the palace, queen did dwell. The courtiers feared her gaze so cold, So stern she was, we’re told. But she is not the same, no more. Bridge: Their happiness did not last long, Cruel fate took him, strong and wrong. She prayed to ease the pain of parting, Unaware that all was charted. Peace and light had left her side — But it was just a nightmare, wide. Outro:
