Didn't wanna make this into a scene
Didn't wanna make this your final dance
Didn't have to give you the option to leave
But now, you can't

Didn't have to be such a thorn in my side
Couldn't just leave better off alone
There was a time where I'd spare your lives
But that time has gone

I'd hate to make this your journey's end
But you're all in way over your heads now

Why could you all not just walk away?
What king's ransom brought you out this way?
Who told you that those vestiges could strike me down?
Why could you all not just step aside?
No one else here even had to die
Let me show you all why I still have this crown

Didn't it sink in when you broke through these wards?
When I didn't blink when you shattered that seal
That you're only here 'cause I opened the door
Just to bring you to kneel

Tell me why you think I'm in the wrong
Why should one bloodline lead for so long?
Where is that king who sent you to my home?
Will he mourn when you're gone?

I found it amusing when you started out
But someone has to put you down

Why could you all not just walk away?
What king's ransom brought you out this way?
Who told you that those vestiges could strike me down?
Why could you all not just step aside?
No one else here even had to die
Let me show you all why I still have this crown

I wish we had time for you all to see things my way
But you crossed a line and there's a debt that must be paid

Why could you all not just walk away?
What king's ransom brought you out this way?
Who told you that those vestiges could strike me down?
Why could you all not just step aside?
No one else here even had to die
Let me show you all why I still hold this crown
