Queen of Swords

The guarded virgins in their castle keep
Watch in jaded silence
The revolt of the masses dreamless sleep
Tells of times in violence

Unconquerable fortress, cold stone wall
Reflect in hardened eyes
Mesmerized by the good man's fall
The fools will greet the wise

Generous hearts are thrown aside
For greed and jealous lust
Truth is now a slippery slide
Their faith has turned to rust

The guarded virgins in their castle keep
Speak a cryptic warning
The forgotten kingdom and her people weep
The time has come for mourning
