Never did he give up
Sought to vengence
To his men
He told his reminiscence
He made a kingdom
In the shadows
The land feared
His armies' bellows
The Mountain King
A title once concidered a hallow
Was now like
The devil's shadow
Every battle
He won
He massacered his foes
One by one
And every time
He heard his father's murderers whine
Each time one fell down
His soul hit the ground
Each time he left a kingdom sprawling
On his back he felt his sins crawling
And then he found himself
In front of his last target
Armies clashed all around
And they both knew what was to be done
Rain poured
Thunder roared
Swords slashed
As the greatest rulers of the millenium clashed
And when they both felt their world's falling apart
They both said to themselves
"All the pain we have caused
All the families we broke
Can't hold back
My breath is all gone
My vision is blurred"
"I am asking myself
What have I done?
How we changed their lives
Was it worth the while?
Will the memories make us smile?"
Then the Mountain King truely opened his eyes
On the ground, a king of lies
His last enemy
To his mercy
He asked
"Can you really change?
Or are you too deranged?"
In his eyes the look he saw
Of fear raw
His last chance at redemption
He now knew war wasn't the solution
Too late to save those
Who are dead
But not too late to save this king
From his deathbed
"One last chance"
He said
"Remember this day
Or else you will pay
Rule wide and far
Rule just and fair"
"It's time for me to see the signs
And pay the retribution for my crimes
The new Mountain King be
But fill your heart with mercy"
And with that he drove
His own sword through
His chest
Farewell fallen king
For tonight
The Bergentruckung
Has won
