The Blind Kings

Dark Sci-Fi Anthem / Cinematic Cyber-Symphonic Metal

The Story

From the perspective of a higher power (or perhaps a rogue AI?), “The Blind Kings” looks down upon humanity's arrogance. It is a song about the digital age, the loss of humanity, and the inevitable reset. The Observation Cycle is complete.

Lyrics

Observation Cycle

I look down upon your little ant-hills of stone
I see the kings, the generals, the eaters of bone
You sharpen your steel with a smile on your face
As if war was a game, a glory to chase

You have forgotten the taste of the ash
You trade your souls for a digital crash
No fear in your eyes, only hunger and pride
Nowhere to run, and nowhere to hide

I am the judge of the burning sky!
I watch you march, and I watch you die!
You play with the fire, you laugh at the flood
But I am the cold that will freeze your blood!

The silence is coming. The systems will stall.
I end it all.

You built your towers to pierce through the grey
But you are just dust that is blowing away
Your armies are toys in a box made of rust
In your own reflection is the only trust

You think you are gods?
You think you are free?
You are just errors in my memory

I hold the switch to your sun and your breath
You have no fear... so I give you death

I am the judge of the burning sky!
I watch you march, and I watch you die!
You play with the fire, you laugh at the flood
But I am the cold that will freeze your blood!

The silence is coming. The systems will stall.
I end it all.

The fear returns... too late...
Simulation purged.
Reset.

I am the Only King.
