March Of The Kings
March of the Kings: Embrace the Night, Face the Fire of Loyalty
Lyrics
They'll never back down, you're gonna find out
Emphasizes determination and resilience; they won't surrender.
They'll tar and feather you and drag you through town
Describes a harsh punishment, public humiliation, and social rejection.
And when the night falls, the swinging gallows
Implies a dangerous and ominous atmosphere during the night.
Call out the devils from their shadow-dark halls
Suggests a summoning of dark forces or sinister entities.
"When the axe swings down, the head falls off, and the crowd just celebrates
Depicts a brutal execution scene with a cheering crowd.
And the laughs and jeers and drunken cheers from all around
Highlights the macabre enjoyment of the crowd during the execution.
So you cry and beg but it's way too late, and the night has sealed your fate
Conveys the inevitability of a tragic fate and the inability to escape it.
And the twisted smiles watch the axe; it falls and falls again"
