The Man Who Would Be King

The Man Who Would Be King

Iron Maiden

As he travels on the beast of burden
Moving up along the mountain’s side
As he gazes looking down the valley
No regrets but his pride

As he journeys across mountain passes
its significance leaps over him
his reflection of the beauty around him
feeling empty inside

He is running from his wildest thoughts
He is running from his everything
He is looking down to find something
Hoping he can be saved

He’s searching for the answer now
It’s something that he’s managed to avoid up ‘til now
The conviction that he claims
He needs to find the answer sooner then later

Pushed himself to the limits
He had to strive for all the harder things in life
But what’s the cost of getting now
His life and time is the only thing that he has

Life is on the rehearsal
All he has is the one chance to get it right
Living really is the only way to know
Maybe one day they’ll forgive him what he’s done
But now the pain of lying too early in the grave

Destiny
No good to hide away
Endless now will be his only way
Understand, no good to run away
Penance now will be his saving grace

He has to make his peace with God
All is forgivable but it’s left a little late
Trying something that he’s not
Is it possible to change such a lot

He’s taking someone’s life away
There’s not a day goes by he regrets what he’s done
He should’ve found another way
For the good book says: “An eye for an eye”

He’s inflecting on decisions that were made
And the judgements that will haunt him to the grave
No one has the right to take another life
But in his mind he had no choice so be it

Destiny
No good to hide away
Endless now will be his only way
Understand, no good to run away
Penance now will be his saving grace

Far far away
The Man Who Would Be King

Far far away
The Man Who Would Be King

So far away
The Man Who Would Be King

So far away
The Man Who Would Be King

Far far away
The Man Who Would Be King.
