Soldier, Poet, King by The Oh Hellos

Body on body

Corpse on corpse

The bodies rose up

As the kingdom fell down

All at the hands of a swordsman

Smile on smile

Giggle on giggle

The morale rose up

As the kingdom fell down

All because of a wordsmith

Crown on crown

Throne on throne

The people rose up

As the kingdom fell down

All because of a monarch

Sword on sword

Shield on shield

The battle rose up

And the kingdom fought back

All for the hearts of the people

The Soldier stood tall

The Poet spoke loud

The King never bowed down

As the kingdom rose up

All through the hearts of the people
