"House Of Kings" lyrics - MAGNUM

Well I mean it when I tell ya
You'll be broken by the world you carry

Watch the vultures pick your bones and
Burn your house down in forgotten valley

There's a hillside, you won't climb it
When you're left out - what you doin' here?

Take the long road before midnight
It's a long way to the next frontier

[Chorus:]
You stole the moon from the sky
A shadow prince in the house of kings
Now you've got nowhere to go
Caught in a wild wind
Stand on a high mountain top
The city lights are a diamond ring
Maybe they'll all turn to glass
Leaving us wondering

There's no angel on your doorstep
That will save you from the road you travel

Keep it rollin' for a long time
Watch confusion on their face unravel

There's a poster on a white wall
And you're dressed up like a showroom dummy

But you sit there like a blind man
Pockets empty, you ain't got no money

[Chorus:]
You stole the moon from the sky
A shadow prince in the house of kings
Now you've got nowhere to go
Caught in a wild wind
Stand on a high mountain top
The city lights are a diamond ring
Maybe they'll all turn to glass
Leaving us wondering

[Chorus 2x]
You stole the moon from the sky
A shadow prince in the house of kings
Now you've got nowhere to go
Caught in a wild wind
Stand on a high mountain top
The city lights are a diamond ring
Maybe they'll all turn to glass
Leaving us wondering
