Beyond The Throne

Law hangs by a thread Hate grows when it's fed Though blue skies overhead The sun shines on the dead And blight creeps up through the beds On calm winds plague can descend And paradise turns on its head When brutality looms and upends We're always but steps from that edge Tottering steps off that ledge You can stare off, deny and pretend But reality snaps when you've bled The seat of true power holds, beyond the throne The seed that in man corrodes, beyond the throne The crown of supreme control, beyond the throne Commands and consumes you whole, beyond the throne Too eager to be bossed Too eager with no thought Too willing to be bought We're too willing to ease off These are the lines that we cross Open your eyes or you'll lose what you've caught Many a man who have gone where we walk Ended up winding through the killing fields lost The seat of true power holds, beyond the throne The seed that in man corrodes, beyond the throne The crown of supreme control, beyond the throne Commands and consumes you whole, beyond the throne No mercy is laid When cancer invades When trust that you gave Returns and betrays This is the bed that they made This the result when grit wanes This the effect when nerve fades If you lay down your sword then be slain And I see the desire in your veins I share the resolve you maintain I feel the dominion you crave But I refuse the kingdom you claim As wars wage and lives are disposed Beware of the frame of mind you impose 'Cause I've seen the face ascendancy shows And none can assuage the hunger that grows Insidious as it unfolds Drunk in a poisonous hold This is the trade when you take to that throne The power commands but it's you it controls The seat of true power holds, beyond the throne The seed that in man corrodes, beyond the throne The crown of supreme control, beyond the throne Commands and consumes you whole, beyond the throne The seat of true power holds The seed that in man corrodes The crown of supreme control Commands and consumes you whole That absolute rule forbodes That trap that entombs the soul Have mind to forsake what's shown Have will to disown Go beyond the throne Beyond the throne Beyond the throne Beyond the throne Beyond the throne The more you feed the black hole The more it takes to control The more you feed the black hole The more it takes and controls
