Poison Elegy Lyrics

Goodnight sweet King farewell, now I weep
Flights of angels sing you to your sleep
To sleep perchance to dream eternally

The King was taken too soon
Stricken down
A serpent's sting in the garden
His heart stopped dead by the poison
But that snake was I, who would ever know?

Hail Caesar brother of mine
My hand is stained with your blood divine
Did you know?
Hail Caesar, slain by me
Now I deliver your elegy, a threnody, your elegy

Your only son and heir has lost his mind
Crazed with grief so as next in line
With heavy heart must accept the throne as mine

The Prince suspects me I fear
Strike him down
he raves of a phantom at midnight
A whispered tale in opaque light
But that truth so vile must remain unknown

Hail Caesar Lord of mine
Stabbed in the back by your own kind
Did you know?
Hail Caesar, blood to me
I will continue your legacy, and your elegy
Your elegy (your elegy)
Your elegy (your elegy)
Hail Caesar
Did you know
Hail Caesar
Hear me now (hear me now)
This is your elegy
